My dreams may soon come true. Back when I was a young’un in college, I used to wish I could teleport, rather than walk the cold, blustery mile to French class at 8 am. Someday, I may be telling my descendents about this, as they complain about how slow their teleporter is. Kids these days, I swear…
Now, I don’t understand quantum mechanics. And apparently, even if you think you understand it, you don’t (according to Richard Feynman). But it doesn’t take a genius to understand that teleportation is pretty freaking cool. Even the U.S. Air Force is looking into it.
Apparently, it’s been possible to teleport information for nearly two decads. But now a Japanese scientist has figured out how to teleport energy, as well.
Simple!
Sure, they’re talking about energy. But surely it can’t be too long before humans can teleport as well, right? Or, as this guy points out, the robots we send into space in place of humans.
