The most famous experiment of this kind is the <em>Bell test.<\/em>&nbsp;In the BBT, laboratories around the world (see map) will prepare entangled quantum particles: electrons, photons, atoms, and superconductors. Through the Internet, an army of participants, the <em>Bellsters<\/em>, will shower these particles with unpredictable, high-speed &#8220;questions&#8221; (measurements, in fact).
