Photon entanglement explained — maybe

On the subject of photon entanglement, physicists engaged in this experimental research admit that while the proof of this phenomenon exists in tangible experimental results, the explanation of why it happens has not been forthcoming. No-one can explain how and why this process occurs -- it just does. Well, I believe that I may have a plausible explanation.

If we could construct a pencil of a light year in length, then tapping the pencil at one end would result in corresponding scribbles at the other end. These scribbles -- representing information -- are received at the same time as they are being written. If we suppose that the same effect occurs with the entanglement of photons -- ie. that an entanglement of photons all along the straight line vector drawn between the cue and object photons creates an analogous pencil of nanoscopic proportions, then we have a rationalisation of what is actually happening. This is the most logical explanation to my mind and this can be tested experimentally by detecting the entanglement of any arbitrary photon that lies on the vector path between cue and object and which photon comprises a part of the 'nano-pencil'.

In any event, the most important application of photon entanglement is the engineering of a quantum communication system which would allow instantaneous communication between a ground-based station and an extra-planetary station such as might exist on the moon, and later Mars.

..not so far fetched, really.
