Will Quantum Sensors Revolutionize Space Science & Tech Calibration?

Quantum sensors are measurement devices that exploit quantum phenomena to achieve sensitivity far beyond classical limits. By harnessing entanglement, superposition, and tunneling, they enable sub-microarcsecond precision for space-borne instruments, opening new regimes for precision astronomy. In 2024, mission design studies predict that integrating quantum sensors can reduce telescope pointing error
