About the World Quantum Day 2026 Doodle
This Doodle features the Bloch Sphere, a visualization of how a qubit works. While a regular bit is strictly 1 or 0, a qubit can exist in a blend of both, called a superposition. By harnessing this along with entanglement, quantum computers can navigate specific complex problems that are impossible for today’s supercomputers to solve.
