Default Photon improved certainty

Since astronomy is heavily light dependent (not my worse oxymoron ), this development regarding the polarization knowledge that can now be gleaned using triphotons might be of some interest. [Of course, it's over my head, but just thought some of the pros might find this interesting.]

Cool. I'm wondering if they'l find volumetric relationships, rather than merely spherical, when The Who recuts Quadraphotonia.

I have corrected a typo in the title, namely the spelling of certainty.

Thanks, Sticks. My spelling is no small problem for me.

This correction should draw them in.

That's interesting! If the switch time is fast enough, it might have major implications for quantum/photonic computing.
