Beam me up, Scotty

I didn't realize this, but scientists are actually trying to figure out teleportation. Granted they can only get an atom or two from here to not-very-far-away, but apparently it can be done. Life imitates art.

  • At first I thought this was a story related to former Ohio representative Jim Traficant, famous for ending his speeches in the house with the phrase "beam me up". A few years back I read something about an experiment in relativity in which the scientists claim to have achieved time travel by moving an atom across a distance and seeing it arrive on the other side before it left. I still don't get it.
