So - the basics of teleportation, is that an object (A) is scanned, so we can find out every single piece of information about it. In this scanning process - the original is destroyed. This info is then sent across, and recreated as an exact copy.

It's been done with light already.
It has also been suggested that Quantum Tunnelling could be used as a method of teleportation.

What I want to know is - what are you views on the subject?
And not just teleportation of light - go as far out as you want. Teleporting material objects - or humans even, are still issues being raised...

i have got my physics teacher attention whit this ideea in gymnasium 5th class, probably we still dont have such a performant spectromenter or scanner to determine all the atoms from a body and if i got to talk about atoms why not going further as i got over proteins, aminoacids, cells, molecules and i do believe that soul isnt just some atoms in some kind of order. Charged, discharged atom's ionized etc. Also manny unknown's in subatomic universe, life is a state of matter, we have matter in 5 stages, solid, liquid, gas, plasma and life. Why life is the 5th? As probably is with the most unknown's. Why to destroy what you are scanning? Do you want to die? Why not be 2 of you or a million. Anyway some scientists made some nuclear tests and they made gold from tin i think. I would prefer a small spaceship able to travel whit 1.000.000 times faster the speed of light, just because of the sight... ![]()

One of the possible methods of teleportation that i personaly like the most is quantum entaglement but the only problem i have is that you origanal object will be destroyed and kinda bothers me because it is almost like you are cloning object A copying it into object C throw B and then your original object is destroyed witch leaves one question in my head and that question is if you telaport a human everything about you will be copyed but will your contiosness be copyied as well.See because Only person A will know that there contiosness would have ended but Person C would almost continue as if nothing had happened but in reality the person he had been copied from and thinks he is would be destroyed what do you think?

Do u guys think dis is a sci-fi movie

I think its improbable.
To make sure particles are transported sucessfully over vast distances, the reassembling of atoms (including the elaiectrons inhabiting them) back to their original orientations requires that we know the absolute states of these particles, because how do you mix up a system of particle averages to then reassemble them?
You'd need to ultimately defy the Uncertainty Principle, which is forbidden.
As for tunneling, this is a quantum phenomena, and entire macroscopic objects do not act like this, and cannot act like this as it is a fundamental property.

The real issue regarding teleportation of the object is to have the same set and parameters in entrance and in exit. Because of there are maybe not direct movement of the material but only information.

This sounds a bit too sci-fi. But hey, so do a few parts of Quantum Mechanics. Teleportation may soon be possible, but the technology just isn't advanced enough at the time. Or it could just be a cloning device maybe? And not an actual means of transport.
