There’s just one catch: every atom in your body would be fully disassembled to the quantum level, effectively leaving your original body totally destroyed.

Can teleport anything? An atom, perhaps?

A brief, limited form of information of sorts. That’s all.

nope. just not possible with our current tech. im not aware of any tech that even lets you deposit an atom at a location on demand merely simulating ‘teleportation’

The idea behind it is to do it at the subatomic level. And no, that’s not how the quantum locking works. I have not read the article but it’s likely by someone who doesn’t know shit about shit.

I seem to remember researchers teleporting an atom like a decade ago. But then I never heard about it again.

Because it was nowhere to be found after the teleport.

No seriously, I remember that too, but I think it was a photon.

There was talk about teleporting a photon, but it was a mathematically possible (but technologically impossible) theory. A whole human is a pipedream.
