Ever wish you could go somewhere in the blink of an eye? I wish I could visit my friends whenever I wanted, and I wish I could go places and see the world. All that takes time and money though, two things I don't have.
So I was wondering what everyone's thoughts are about Teleportation. Do any of you think that there may be a way? And if so, how and when?

i don't think so but it would be pretty cool if we could teleport, mainly why it won't happen is because i think that there would be too many bugs in the system where u would come out missing body parts or something

Well I guess what we are talking about here is either that you move from one place to another so fast you don't even know you were travelling, you just arrive, or you are saying we would bend the world so that you can step in one step from say New York State to Hong Kong. Now bending the world would take so much energy or you would need one of those other dimension things to move instantly and that would be difficult to do and I don't know if that is possible or safe, it might turn a person into a puddle of goo i dont know for sure . It is out there as an idea that there are wormholes, where you move into another dimension of space and come out somewhere else, and that could be possible in the future. But maybe we could travel so fast that it seems like you got there instantly almost. For instance you could shoot through some tubes where you are in some kind of stasis and you are sent like a rocket to the place where you are slowed down the same way and then get out of the travel system. It would let you get to major places, instantly across oceans, continents. I mean the space shuttle and rocket can go what 25,000 miles per hour I think or maybe more now, that is already 500 times faster than 50 miles per hour, the speed I drive sometimes in a 40 :/. So improve technology a few times over and make improvements on improvements, then you can travel with teleportation-like speed maybe. Well I just thought of two shows with different ideas that are both popular. In Star Trek you scramble up all of their atoms and beam them to places at the speed of light where the beam reassembles them. In Star Wars you travel at the speed of light in a vehicle. So we have seen both ways in science fiction and no doubt they both will come closer to being possible one day.

with the types of transport that are currently being developed it will be soon, i've heard that Japan are making trians that hover about a foot of the rails/track and can travel about 300 mph, which might make it the fastest yet, they are just having some problems on it cornering!

I don't know..sometimes i think america is behind in areas like that..but to be honest i am one that believes in places like area 51..I'm not posative they have aliens there and stuff..but i do believe they are workin on some pretty top secret awsome stuff. And if you do believe in aliens. How do you think they get here? very high speeds if not wormholes and such. Of the area we coverd in space is HUGE and we havn't found life yet ..tho i believe we are close. Even the areas we have covered arn't nothing compaired to what's out there. I believe we are very uncivilized and behind the times with the rest of the universe. There is prolly so much out there that is so unbelievable we would prolly crap our pants if we knew even only half a percent of it. So me I think it will be possible some day...i don't know if it will be possible the way you are thinkin..but i believe theres "aliens" out there that have already done it. Maybe even like stargate atlantis kinda...ancient ancestors of ours were here millions of years ago..and left to another place or somethin. I mean people say there was the city of atlantis.and they were so advanced and so powerful with nature and other things..but they took it to far and it was to powerful and killed themselves..but maybe some escaped to outerspace..hey you never know. But anyway..i'm talkn to much. But there will be some amazing forms of transportation some day..but i don't know if it will be in our life times

I want to see other planets!
I dream of these things you are talking about. I just hope we don't have to wait much longer. I went on the NASA website a few weeks ago to check out pics of Mars, and I'd have to say that I was expecting more from all the time that the Rover has been there! Maybe they met aliens and they are talking with them and thinking about how they can spring the news on us!
