The answer is yes, we have made one! We do it from a process called "quantum entanglement". But as for the "beaming up" in the Star Trek movies, there's no hope at all or we're a very long way off.
Anyways, what is quantum entangling when you teleport? When you teleport something using the quantum entanglement method, the object gets copied, then entangled with the copy, then the original object that got copied gets destroyed, leaving a teleported object.
However, humans cannot go into this teleportation method for two main reasons.
- The human body has just too much information. We cannot go into this or else your legs might be sticking out of out our head, or your organs inside out!
- The "destroy the old copy" bit tends to...kill you.
So yeah, we really need to revise this. But there are much safer ways to travel!
Interesting fact of the day: Yahoo actually got offered to buy Google for $1 million, but Yahoo turned down the offer. Now,it's worth about $200 billion, while Yahoo is worth about $20 million. If you want to see more facts about Google, click here.
