Teleport? No. Telecopy? Yes.

Beam me up: Just how close are we to teleportation? - CNN.com

Come on! This is just too cool.

I've heard rumblings of this experiments for a while, but this is the first article that I've seen with a good explanation for what's going on.

I have humble dreams of being teleported from Seoul to Chicago for birthday parties and anniversaries. This would give a new meaning to weekend getaways!

Unfortunately, this is not necessarily teleportation; it's more like telecopying. None-the-less, it's still very cool. At a minimum, just think of telecopying basic compounds from earth to bases on other planets or even from areas with to those without. Water in the Sahara anyone?

Read the article.
