Have there been any successful teleporting experiments?

yes.\nSome very clever people managed to teletransport a photon of light from one side of a lab to the other. But dont get your hopes up being able to transport people between starships and the planet they orbit.....

The first answer is a very interesting read but doesn't really answer the question here.  (further more, it's a cut and paste from this wikipedia entry:\n http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Causality_(physics) )\n\nThe other posters are right.  There is nothing in quantum mechanics that suggests that causality is incorrect.\n\nThere is a common misconception that quantum teleportation allows faster than light communication and therefore also breaks causality (it can be proved that if faster than light communication is possible, then you can observe the effect before the cause happens).  However this is incorrect.  In order to perform quantum teleportation, the transmitter still has to send a message classically to a receiver to communicate the result of a measurement.  This communication cannot be done faster than the speed of light - which means you can't use teleportation for faster-than-light communication - which means quantum teleportation doesn't break the law of causality.

In June 2002 the Ph.D. project of Dr. Warwick Bowen led by Dr. Ping Koy Lam, Prof. Hans Bachor and Dr. Timothy Ralph of the Australian National University achieved (quantum) teleportation of a laser beam. [2]\n\nIt was a successful quantum teleportation experiment involving the use of 'entangled' photons. A target photon was successfully 'scanned', its properties 'copied' onto a transition photon, and finally the photon was recreated at another location of arbitrary distance, proving in essence the theorems proposed by Einstein to explain his 'strange action at a distance'.\n\nScientists teleported atoms in 2004.

Absolutely.  In fact, there have been several different approaches, including zapping little pellets with a monster laser (NOVA), which are then immersed in water.  These minuscule nuclear bombs fuse and release their energy into the water, creating steam and turning turbines.\n\nThe most promising method, however, is a fusion reactor; a magnetic bottle which traps plasma.  Fusion occurs when the electromagnetic forces of nuclei (which are positive) are overcome.  In order to get nuclei, atoms are injected into the reactor and brought to immense temperatures.  The individual atoms, which are neutral, become so energetic that the electrons are stripped from the nuclei, creating plasma.  Plasma is simply free electrons (negatively charged and unbounded to a nucleus) and the positively charged nuclei.  Because these are positively and negatively charged, the plasma is contained within magnetic field lines.  This is the proverbial "magnetic bottle".\n\nThe nuclei smash into each other, creating helium nuclei and excess neutrons.  These neutrons are EXTREMELY energetic (14 MeV), and are neutrally charged.  Therefore, these neutrons zip right past the magnetic field lines.  The charged plasma remains, continuing the fusion process; and the neutrons are captured in water, where elastic collisions with H2O molecules transfers the energy from the neutrons to the water, heating the water, turning it to steam, and turning the turbines.\n\nThere are a couple of major problems.  First, the sun is very big and very hot.  Getting similar temperatures and pressures on Earth is next to impossible.  Although the energy released is several orders of magnitude greater than the energy put in when the process is going a full capacity, getting it started has been very difficult.  However, through TFTR and the new ITER, already the plasmas have generated more energy than were used to start the process.  This is a big step.\n\nAlso, the magnetic bottle and the plasma can experience some strange instabilities and wave functions.  Any time a harmonic resonance-like phenomena occurs, the fusion can break down, the plasma cools, and the process slows or stops.  As the test reactors continue to gather data, these phenomena are better understood.\n\nFinally, those 14 MeV neutron zip through the magnetic bottle and the water, and interact with impurities in the concrete and building materials, creating radioactive waste.  This waste is not insignificant - huge amounts of concrete becomes low-level waste.  Low level waste is NOT a measure of how dangerous it is - this stuff can be very dangerous - but it will only remain dangerous for about 100 years or so.  It's not the stuff that remains deadly for thousands of years.\n\nSo solve the instabilities, be able to sustain a plasma and reaction long enough to become self-sustaining, and be prepared for the low level waste, and fusion will become an almost unlimited energy supply.

That's what they say.  I haven't seen it work in action yet.  Most of those who have set something free, it didn't come back.  I'm running my own experiment, so maybe I'll have an answer for you then.

Philadelphia experiment\nIf we are to believe [Carl] Allen, our naval hierarchy abandoned sanity and historical precedent by conducting an experiment of enormous importance in broad daylight using a badly needed destroyer escort vessel . . . If someone were to write a book telling the real story, its title might be The Philadelphia Hoax: Project Gullibility (Robert A. Goerman)\n\nThe Philadelphia experiment is an alleged United States Navy experiment (Project Rainbow) done on October 28, 1943. According to legend, the destroyer USS Eldridge was made invisible, dematerialized, and teleported from Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, to Norfolk, Virginia, and back again to the Philadelphia Naval Yard. The experiment allegedly had such terrible side effects, such as making sailors invisible and causing them to go mad, that the Navy quit exploring this exciting new technology.\n\nThe experiment was allegedly done by Dr. Franklin Reno as an application of Einstein's unified field theory. The experiment supposedly demonstrated a successful connection between gravity and electromagnetism: electromagnetic space-time warping. \n\nThe Navy denies that it ever did such a test. The denial is taken as proof by the conspiratorially minded that the experiment must have really occurred. The less gullible ask, Where did this story come from?\n\nThe story is a mixture of fact, fiction, speculation, and madness.\n\nThe facts are that the Navy does all kinds of experiments, many of them secret. Many of these experiments attempt to find military applications for the latest discoveries or theories in physics, such as Einstein's unified field theory. It seems to be a fact that the Navy was experimenting with "invisibility" in 1943, but not with making ships disappear. Edward Dudgeon, who says he was there on the U.S.S. Engstrom, claims that they hoped to make our ships "invisible to magnetic torpedoes by de-Gaussing them." Dudgeon described the procedure: to UFO investigator Jaques Vallee:

Are you talking about Dr. Emoto's experiments?

My answer is possibly...\n\nIt appears that someone I found on the link for the message board I attached below says it has worked for them, but there are many people talking about the real loops and hoops you have to jump through to make this really happen.  So I hope this site helps you answer your question...if not it will confuse you more...haha.  Good Luck!\n\n:-)

The Michelson Morley experiment of 1887 gave a pretty clear "no" result to the existance of the Aether, and this result has been reproduced by just about every card-carrying physicist out ther.  It would still allow a really crazy aether that moved exactly with the Earth however.\n\nThe Trouton-Noble experiment in 1903 got the same "null" or no-aether result through the use of careful measurements of parallel plate capaciters whose properties would shift slightly with regard to any form of Aether.\n\nThe Trouton-Rankine experiment in 1908 got the same "null" result through a method of trying to detect a variation in Lorentz contraction of objects with regard to a "prefered frame," the frame of the aether.  No frame was detected.\n\nHamar, in 1935 redid the MM experiment, only this time he added lead block in such a way as to perturb the Aether if it were there.  No deviations were found, again another null result for Aether.\n\nThese are just a couple of the big ones off the top of my head.

Based on the relativity theory, there are many studies that are taking place to look into the possibility of traversing the time-space continuum.  As far as I know, we're not quite there yet.  But if and when we are, we should be able to tap into the theoritical "worm-holes" to go into different points in space without having to exume too much time.

Got literacy?\nAnyway there are some theories as to the possiblities of intantaneous teleportation that involve massive electromagnetic fields but as of now there is no real way to teleport things.  According to quantum mechanics, though, extrordinarily small particles (electrons et al) have a tendency to "tunnel" varying distances almost instantaneously.

Good answer Azreal! Scientists in Australia have actually transported light matter across the laboratory in the last year though....hey its a start!

This is how I uderstand it:\nwhen you teleport you need to send information of the quantum state of the object to the other end, ie less than speed of light (unless you have a wormhole that is). Then when you receive info on the quatum state you can recreate it. So I dont think it violetes Special relativity since you send info at <=c.

I haven't, but search "climb everest" in yahoo.  And YES it can & has been done.

Of the three, I would say a dream viewer would be the most tangible.  Science is constantly making advances in neurology.  Time machines and teleportation devices would both defy laws of science.  Time travel itself would be a form of teleportation.  Would you want to trust a machine to reassemble your atomic/molecular structure?  I also would consider impossible for a machine to transport the human soul.

There have never been any documented, verifiable cases of telekinesis/psychokinesis.  \n\nThis points to the probability that telekinesis is not possible, and no one has been able to figure out even a theoretical basis that would make it possible, but doesn't totally rule out the existence of telekinetic ability.  \n\nJust makes it extremely, extremely improbable.

for teleporting one needs to convert himself in to the size of photons and then pass and at that level i dont think it is possible to see where one is going as there wont be any betweeen the brain and the rest of the body !\nand for this the available technology can not support \n\nsincerely speaking, i think that it is or was an alien technology not a thing made on earth . atleast not at that time!!\n\nAND ONE MORE THING IT WASNOT ANY ROMANIAN  ...NOT FOR THE FIRST TIMEATLEAST  !\n\nit was by some HINDU GOD<P.S. I AM A CHRISTIAN>
