Teleportation is a common subject in a lot of science-fiction movies, which is the transfer of matter or energy from one place to another place without physical space interaction.

As of now teleportation in the quantum world including energy and information is shown to be possible. Recently, a demonstration, for the first time in Energy teleportation, showed that it can be possible to teleport energy over a much longer distance ( In the demonstration, which was done in IBM’s quantum computer, they were only able to teleport energy over roughly the computer chip size )

Let’s talk about Human teleportation —

Being a science fiction concept, How can it be possible to teleport a human being? So, here comes a question what is a human being !? — the sum of all atoms with the information.

Then, teleportation can be through a way of dematerializing, transmitting, and rematerializing humans meaning that the atoms of our body get converted into subatomic particles like protons, electrons, and nuclei and transmitted to some other place and materializing the subatomic particle to their previous state. This dematerializing will require a lot of energy since there is a strong nuclear force acting against debonding the protons from the nuclei like the energy in Large Hadron Collider ( used in an experiment that discovered the Boson particle).

Since we are debonding, we have to maintain this information that defines a specific human being ( the arrangement of particles, consciousness, physical appearance, etc basically the whole composition which defines him/her. ).

Now, we captured the particles by debonding and maintaining the information, we should transport these two beams i.e. particle beam and information beam at the speed of light to another place (planet).

Now, a technical challenge to rematerialize a person on the surface of another place (planet). So, a mechanism has to exist to resolve a human body at a subatomic scale ( A resolution power of a trillion times that of the JWT — requiring a mirror that vast distance between the places).

Conclusion —

So, there are huge challenges to achieve this....

But wait, what if any one of the beams (particle/information) gets corrupted or lost, or copied? Do we lose that human which gives rise to the question of what is the difference between a dead human being and a living human being!? Can we make a copy of that human being !?

That’s all for today… Let’s catch up for another article related to Quantum Physics…..
