Well, if a fruit fly can manage do this… :)
I couldn’t pass by this site and not share it with you… The title alone had me more than intrigued.
“Exploring the Extraterrestrial Dimensions of Human Consciousness”
IN 2005 cosmologist and astrophysicist Eric Davis completed a paper for the United States Air Force arguing that teleportation was an achievable technology and a legitimate science. “Specifically the purpose of his study was to collect information describing the teleportation of material objects, providing a description of teleportation as it occurs in physics, its theoretical and experimental status, and a projection of potential applications” (Witcher).
Davis compiled five futuristic viable modes of teleportation:
- “Quantum teleportation is a technique that shifts the characteristics, but not the location of sub-atomic particles at great distances” (Witcher);
- “Wormholes, a highly theoretical possibility whereby the intense gravitational field near black holes could rip open entrances to distant locales” (Vergano);
- Parallel Universe travel in parallel dimensions;
- Science-fiction-based Star Trek transporter beams, which he dismisses;
- Psychic Teleportation, the most reasonable starting point: Chinese researchers have demonstrated test subjects teleporting fruit flies and grasshoppers with their minds alone (Witcher); Famed and defamed psychic Uri Geller supposedly teleported a sealed crystal compound out of existence.

If teleportation were accessible throughs cientific means, OF COURSE the army would have first dibs ^_~
