This is pretty good news if only that we will get more research into this phenomenon.
In 1933 von Neumann basically published a proof against the idea of any hidden-variable theory. It took 30 years but Bell then discredited it.
My guess is that a lot of this will get revisited. The outcome of this in the next 10-20 years might be really cheap probes (via reusable launch vehicles like SpaceX is making) that need no propellent to continue onto their merry way for a long time. The current way of doing this would be using solar sails or something along those lines which is not exactly compact.
Having a way to push your little probe along (even at a little bit of acceleration) without having to carry a lot of heavy propellant is a big deal. Maybe just some solar panels to generate the energy needed.
