Well... it's not.

Let me explain it in [metaphor? I don't know what this is called]:

Alice has an orange, which she cuts into thirds. She keeps 2/3rds of the orange, and sends 1/3rd in a box to Bob.

Bob receives the package via priority mail a day later. Knowing Alice was going to send him part of an orange he eagerly he opens it. Inside the box is 1/3rd of an orange. Instantaneously, Bob knows that Alice must have 2/3rds of an orange.

That's basically what quantum entanglement is like. You're not sending information faster than light.

I recognized it, loled, and am playing Star Trek Online right now. I like when this place has hard science for me, to save my sanity from the soft science world of Star Trek. Star Trek is entertaining, but for crying out loud they keep making up words!
