10. Not sure how but they did it.
The Chinese researchers successfully sent information 10 miles. There's a link in one of the links I added earlier. In order for "information" to have been successfully sent (and verified for correctness) they would have had to manipulate one or more of the properties of the first atom (or photon). They first entangled the two photons and then took one of them 10 miles away to do the experiment. I see no reason why they couldn't have transported it even farther, 100 miles, 1000 miles, who knows, just as long as the two photons remain entangled. So I'd guess the moving of the entangleds would have to obey the speed of light. Patience would be required if you wanted to send one to another star.

As for the 11 dimensions I'd have to say your guess is as good as mine. I just thought what would happen if one of the 11 dimensions didn't undergo the expansion after the big bang. Or maybe whatever caused the expansion worked differently on that dimension. And then I guessed that there might be a connection between this 5th dimension and the "normal" space we are familiar with. Nobody has proven that there isn't so why not? Just how do we cause our atoms and molecules to leave "normal space" and move around on the 5th dimension for a time before returning to normal space, moving mere inches in the 5th dimension could be equivalent to moving a million light years in normal space, except that you didn't technically "move" anywhere in normal space so you are not exceeding the speed of light. You disappeared from one place and then some time later reappeared a million light years away. Boom. Not exactly warp drive but dimensional drive.
