How far are we from actual test that gravity is quantum?
As we all know, probing the Planck scale directly is still far beyond our current technologies. But I've heard that proving that in fact gravity is quantum should be much easier and we are not that ...

Is the speed of quantum entanglement interaction greather than $c$? [duplicate]
How much time should not elapse between measurements of e- and e+ spin computed at a distance ot 1km to not detect effects of the entanglement? There should be a finite speed? Maybe greater than $c$?...

Can we create "asymmetric" EPR pairs in experiments?
Asymmetric here is just for lack of a better word.
What I am looking for are experiments that can create a simple EPR pair but without 50% 50% chance of each state.
As I understand from standard ...
