Could Transporters ever be used?

[Mark Mag Gloade]

State your opion here and also state when, i have no knowledge of when the first transport happend to a human on the startrek timeline

I dont know what you mean by that but i was reading a book and it says things actually are transporting all the time.
The larger the object though the rarer it is.
Even for a single molocule it doesnt happen much.
It might be possible to transport but it wouldnt be how they do it in star trek
(take apart your atoms, turn them into energy and reconstitute you somewhere else)

[Datas_Hottie]

Transporters probally will exist like star trek In about 60 years. But i gratefully doubt it tho.

[Praetor]

They have transported a beam of light before I know this, i'm sure soon, objects and other things will begin to be transported as our knowledge of the technology grows.

[Datas_Hottie]

But soon our technologie will soon be too advanced and we won't be gueting anywere because were too advance and we ran out of building material and Farming land ( I listened juring Goegraphie for once, It sounded interserting)

[Mark Mag Gloade]

but we still have only explored the inner planets, perhaps we will find new resources and make colonies on other planets, there are no limits

[Datas_Hottie]

True. they are making a space dock for people to live on . They already started.it sjhould be finished in a few years. Hopefully i'll still be alive.

[Mark Mag Gloade]

the iss?

[Datas_Hottie]

The Iss ??? sorry i dunno what you mean by that.

[Qgirl]

I remember someone on a different thread said that Germany had already
transported things. Like pens and other non-organic matter. This person said it's was not general public info, but they knew someone inside the gov. that told them.

They said they were only having problems with transporting organic material.

So I think, transporters are closer then we think.

[Mark Mag Gloade]

lets hope and iss is the international space station

[Melodramatic]

It will exsist in 80 to 90 years.

[Mark Mag Gloade]

ooooooo

[Melodramatic]

Well, when its used by millions of people and becomes apart of ppls daily lives. I dont think it will be much sooner.

[Mark Mag Gloade]

i can hope cant i?

[sabertooth1217]

if the human race ever gets to that level i think that we would have sometype of them. maybe not the same as star trek but it would be close. same with replicators.

[Valathous]

Like Qgirl said. We already have transporters, but they casn only transport small inorganic things from 1 room to the room next to it at this point. And sometimes they come back scrambled.......

[vorrick]

they will come to pass like all things

[Jeremy]

Yeah, I heard that some research has gone on on transportation, and they think it could be possible to do it for humans. Its something like they get scanned and then destroyed, then an exact copy is made somewhere else.

[moved from gen. trek. fit tech better. jad.]

[Mark Mag Gloade]

well im going to keep hoping

[Jeremy]

It would be really cool, but could be dangerous, not only for the person being transported, but if they could be transported anywhere then assasins could take out the world leaders if they got a hold of the technology,

[Mark Mag Gloade]

but how would you know where their going they could be anywhere in the unerverse!
