I believe they've previously successfully teleported small participles around earth as well.

Yes it could be quite a while before people are beaming around the place. Seeing as you're just sending a blueprint of the object, to be constructed at the other end, there will be multiple copies of the object/person after sending. Could get confusing. :shocked:

It's only the barest beginnings, true - but hey, it's a start!
It's quite a scientific achievement, and it could be useful in the long run. The Chinese have a head start on this; the rest of the world better get cracking. MIT in particular should be all over this. <OT>My favourite joke re predictive text is the one where a vicar intends to send 'fancy a quiche?' to a friend who's a nun...and it arrives as 'fancy a quickie?' :p:</OT> |
