In the future atomic clocks will be quantum entangled?

The two clocks used for the experiment were only 2 metres apart, but in principle such networks can be scaled up to cover much larger distances.


Super accurate clocks have got practical uses, one application that might be possible in the future is a gravity sensor. So put the clock in a satellite and underground mineral deposits could be detected from space. Now you don't need the clock to be quatum entangled for this to work, but I wonder what a network of super accurate clocks linked together could do?
