Quantum teleportation sounds less magical when people understand how it works, but in actuality it's just as stunning. Essentially, the exact characteristics of one particle are transferred to another particle some distance away, "destroying" the characterstics of the original particle.
One might say that the particle didnt "REALLY" move, just its properties did; however, in quantum mechanics, two particles are identical (that is, the same) if they have the same properties. |

see, thats why i'm never going into one of those teleporters (when they become a method of travel) cause really, you die when you go in, and you have a clone (exactly the same) but its still not you. you die. that sucks. |

hey would that mean your still you though? i mean would you still think the same way? would you still be who you are if you teleported? because if your a clone your mind would be cloned to, but your personality can't. in a way its like cloning a soul. would your personality have to start over? thats in mind boggling |
