A
China
B
US
C
Japan
D
Russia
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -China has successfully launched the world’s first quantum-enabled satellite, state media said. It was carried on a rocket which blasted off from the Jiuquan Satellite Launch Centre in China’s north west early on Tuesday.

Detailed explanation-2: -China says it has launched the world’s first quantum satellite, a project Beijing hopes will enable it to build a coveted “hack-proof” communications system with potentially significant military and commercial applications.

Detailed explanation-3: -It is the world’s first quantum communications satellite, launched by China in 2016. The satellite serves as the source of pairs of entangled photons. Entangled photons are twinned light particles whose properties remain intertwined no matter how far apart they are.

Detailed explanation-4: -Detailed Solution. The correct answer is 12. China has launched the first 6G satellite into space.

Detailed explanation-5: -1988. Yoshihisa Yamamoto and K. Igeta propose the first physical realization of a quantum computer, including Feynman’s CNOT gate. Their approach uses atoms and photons and is the progenitor of modern quantum computing and networking protocols using photons to transmit qubits and atoms to perform two-qubit operations.
