human teleportation

[Castiel]

ffs they have already teleported an atom from one side of a room to the other, so the way technology advances i reckon it will be here within 50 years

It was the properties of a particle not an Atom as such and it wasn't teleported in the sense that the OP is suggesting.

No.

This

Moving hundreds/thousands of billions of molecules and reforming them in the exact state and position they where in before the teleportation is about as close to impossible as you can get to be fair.

what a worthy op to read :/

 

[cm1179]

what a worthy op to read :/

almost as worthy as your reply

 

[Xordium]

Probably not.

I think Mr Werner Heisenberg may have a thing or two to say about why human teleportation may well never happen.

The transporters in Star Trek have an amusing component call the Heisenberg Compensator.

 

[Grandmaster Fap!]

Of course it will happen, ive seen it on that documentary called....er.....StarTrek, yeah thats it!

 

[Ceryndrion]

Simple answer.. No

More complex answer.. No

 

[iamTakeo]

No.

 

[Mobius 1]

yes, using wormholes its completely possible. i have a theory.

 

[Freefaller]

YesNoMaybe

That is my answer and I'm sticking with it.

 

[Allnamestaken]

^^ no point being so closed minded.


Everything is possible UNTILL proven impossible .... loool.

Never say never.

 

[AGD]

/serious answer

Yes, but in about 1000 years time.

 

[GothicCorpse]

Your rabbit is not the Devil, it's part of your therapy, now get back in that jacket with all the buckles like a good boy!!

ignore me but lmao.
I say yes in the end.

Yeah, but what about the whole quantum entanglement thing with the hidden variable? Isn't that essentially a violation of Heisenberg's Uncertainty Princple?


Incidentally, I always loved this joke:
Heisenberg is driving along in his car and gets stopped by the police.
Policeman asks 'Do you know how fast you were going?'
Heisenberg replies 'Nope, but I know where I am.'

Stitches.

and the other wayh is to scan you >send information then make you again att he other end.

problem with that is you're still on pad 1 and need to be killed.


people wouldn't agree to dying so basically a replica clone could live on.

That would be very useful. You could take a scan of yourself in your 20s then when you're getting on a bit, go back to an earlier restore point and kill your older self .

missed this?

Yes, but you don't have one, neither do I. Thus his statement is correct.

That's essentially what teleportation is, since you can't create or destroy matter you transfer the properties of one group of atoms into another group of atoms and then you've moved without actually moving.

50 years ago they all thought we would have flying cars and robots by now.

Flying cars or the 'hover conversion' is in 2015. Have you not seen Back to the Future 2?

But you would be dead.


Lets say i have a perfect replica of you now, would you be happy with me shooting you in the face with a shotgun?
