TSonofvulcan 0 Posted March 27, 2004 Hey, I heard that molecular transport has been attempted. Someone tried to "Beam" a stack of papers 5 feet but it didn't work. I don't plan to take a trip for a while. LOL <_< :unsure: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fenriz275 0 Posted March 27, 2004 I did read somewhere that someone had managed to transport a beam of light. Hey they managed to beam a beam, lol <_< Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Valeris 2 Posted March 27, 2004 (edited) I have heard some of those rumors too. Does anyone know how far we actually are from molecular transport? I cannot wait! <_< Edited March 27, 2004 by Valeris Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WEAREBORG4102 0 Posted March 27, 2004 they did beam a photon... But that was because of Special relativity and pair production.... unfortunately, our computers will never be able to transport us instantly until they reach a speed of 2,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 hertz......

nik 0 Posted March 27, 2004 I have heard some of those rumors too. Does anyone know how far we actually are from molecular transport? I cannot wait! How far from molecular transport? Pretty far. As WEAREBORG said, all we can do is examine QM effects on single photons, and maybe separated electrons, but not entire molecules, let alone nucleons. These experiments really aren't too much beyond what Michael Faraday was doing 100-150 years ago with EM waves. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
