“Quantum sensors can sense the tiniest of changes in the gravity or magnetic field and use a previously prepared map of these properties to determine their location. Since a quantum sensor does not need to receive or send a signal to an external device, it cannot be hacked or be spoofed by a fake incoming signal either. “ Very cool!

*Cant be Non-magnetically hacked

Cue magnetic mines, but where are you getting the gravitic mines from?

If it works off tiny changes in gravity, a really big rock would work.

Our mission is to sneak this Ayers rock under the boat without being detected. In and out. 45 minutes tops.

I was going to say something about the scale of gravity changes needed, but your take is way better. Cheers.
