In quantum entanglement when something acts on one particle the other one reacts also, just in reverse (more or less). From what I've read though, anything acting on either particle will collapse the entanglement, right? So how do we know they were ever linked? Or is it just measurements that collapse it?
The reason I ask is because given the public impression of the topic it would suggest on of two things. That the information causing the reaction is superluminal or that the particles are occupying the same space since they are in different states. If the second were true then distance must be a human construct and somehow they must still be in the same place regardless of the virtual distance between them.
To clarify, I don't mean information in regards to communication such as QC. Just particle information.
