you can't "communicate", but it would be useful for qubits in one quantum computer to be sent to another quantum computer without physically moving the qubit. that was what I meant by wide-area quantum information networks

Oh totally agreed. My response wasn't to your comment, but to a comment implying that aliens are communicating "across" us but never through us via means of quantum teleportation and that's why can't detect them.

I agree with you, this is impressive and probably will be very helpful some day.

Thank you! This is definitely one of those things where my understand was inaccurate and this thread has been immensely helpful to improve that.
