Sorry about that ridiculous watermark.

    I think we are still in the realm of a physics problem for teleportation lol

    Fusion is an engineering problem. the sun does it. We’ve done it. We just suck at it.

    Teleporting is not possible as far as we know …unless I missed something huge in science news

      I felt like they hinted in some episodes that there was some rule of nature they were exploiting to get it to work. Like imagine trying to tell someone in the 11th century that humans made machines that can fly, they imagine some mechanical thing flapping wings. They imagine it because they don’t know what air does when it passes over a fast moving surface. It isn’t like the transporter really stores your pattern down to every particle, there was something that they found that made it a lot easier problem to solve.

        Yeah someone mentioned the Heisenberg compensators to me in a different comment and I’m betting that’s what you are referring to.

      Does quantum entanglement count? Probably depends on your definition of “teleportation”, I’d assume.

        No, unfortunately. the closest we’ve come with that is proving that the universe isn’t locally real. Three physicists just won the nobel prize for proving it. Which is mind boggling in it’s own right
