Teleportation, first steps?

[MJDub]

Something that has always made me think about teleporting is that they destroy something in one place and recreate it in another. So let's say if I tried to teleport, it wouldn't actually be me, but an identical clone of me. It would turn into some kind of crazy scenario like The 6th Day if they actually failed to destroy the original version of me.

Nice thread Jenks! The first thread on the new board to actually spark some in-depth discussion and deep thought.

Crazy stuff. anything is possible now with technology. Kinda makes you wonder what is left to discover.

I don't think that teleportation will happen in my lifetime. It is kick ass to see shit like this come up though. I'm 24 and if when I'm 90 teleportation is main stream I'd do it. What the hell else is there to do? That invisible cloak was kick ass though!

haha.. whast funny about that is that my girlfriend and i are in a long distance relationship right now. and it sucks. so everyonce in a while, she says something to the extent that i could teleport out there.... and the reply i give is the exact thing you just said.

i usually dramma it up and say that i would die and shed just have a copy of me. but yea, teleporting in that sense would suck.

ive heard of worm hole type theories where they would be able to somehow create a wormhole between two very close places (like millimeters) and then stretch the hole out somehow... but that doesnt seem that feasible right now.. atleast in that sense, we wouldnt be clones of ourselves

look to the future for great things to be happening.

I've always thought of teletransportation and its probability of existing.
I still think its really far away though.

Its nice to hear of its beginnings

This sort of thing is why i'm doing physics @ uni
