The EPR Paradox, proposed by Einstein, Podolsky, and Rosen in 1935, highlights a puzzling feature of quantum mechanics. It shows that two entangled particles instantly adopt opposite states when one is measured, no matter how far apart they are-implying a form of "instant" connection that seems to defy the speed limit set by relativity.
