There's lots of interesting work in this field. I was just reading a few months ago that we are able to stop and start photons as well, which was thought to be impossible.
When someone can do it with atoms instead of photons thing'll get interesting.

Funny ting is that we cannot teleport the light to us from any point in space. However this is only my theory. I hope humans manage to make a sub-space telescope of some kind.

For a human to be teleported, a machine would have to be built that could pinpoint and analyse the trillions and trillions of atoms that make up the human body.
Quantum teleporting is problematic for humans because the original is destroyed in the process of creating the replica.
"I think teleporting of that kind is very, very far away," Dr Lam said.
"We don't know how to do that with a single atom yet.
"But that doesn't mean that in the far future it's not possible."
Hmmm, perhaps they will be able to teleport humans in a 100 to a 150 years? I don't know, maybe shorter maybe longer. Science is to fasinating.

I want to life longer so that I can see all these things work. It just isn't fair.

Those things probably won't be as exciting as we think they are now.
It's just because this is something new...

I guess. But still the whole idea of zapping yourself from place to place is so cool. I used ti dream of being able to do it when I was smaller.
