Will trek technology ever be real?

I don't think everything. Some tings, like those 'computers', for instance on the desk of the captain, come on! even laptops are smaller these days. So that won't. But other things, like time travel, replicators, matter-antimatter propulsion, torpedoes, fasers... I hope so

Just about anything is possible given enough time. If you think of what the world was like 400 years ago compared to what the world is like now, it's not very far-fetched to imagine a Trek-like world 400 years in the future.

However, they say that the Transporters will never be possible, at least in the manner they are in Star Trek, but you never know.

Well they are possible though not in near future!
There are four problems concerning transporters:
1)Disintegration of a human body (or anything else) into molecules
2)Storring data about their original placement in the body
3)tranfering those molecules to the transportation point
4)Assembling human body using those molecules and position data of each of them

Do we have anything of this?
1)Disintegration, don't think so but it's possible (cant see a reasson why wouldnt be)
2)A lot of space (memory,HDD Storage) is required (chain made of HDDs from here to the moon and each of them has a capacity of 120GB would be sufficient to store that ammount of data)
so this is highly possible cause today we already have 1TB HDDs
3)This is the easiest part, transffering molecules from place to another is possible today
4)And finnaly assembling the body, this is offcourse not possible in these days (one molecule in wrong place and you dont exist anymore

)

This was all taken from some TV show i've watched!

But remember this:
There are far more advanced tehnologies in the world that we are not familiar with just because some scientists keep them as a secret!
So I believe that there are some ST tehnologies available today!

Hope this was understandable enough:D

While I appreciate your well thought out contributions to the site, we prefer that topics older than 6-7 months not be ressurected. If you see a really old topic that catches your interest, just make a new one. Looking at time-stamps of the last few posts helps determine this.
