Today we are going to discuss "Teleportation" and its existence in reality.
Is teleportation possible? Could we teleport humans?
Well, the answer is going to be covered here.
We'll, I've learnt some of the amazing information about teleportation from many research papers and I'll give my best to give a concised article for better understanding for you.
Let's dive right in:
UNDERSTANDING TELEPORTATION:
As per some of the religious doctrines, teleportation is said to be possible.
Even many of the scriptural writings had explained teleportation.
Cloning and time travel are compared to teleportation.
Is that correct?
No!, These are different from each other.
First of all, teleportation means to deconstruct from one place and reconstruct in some other place.
This could be taken as a colloquial term for teleportation.
The word Teleportation was first introduced by Charles fort in 1931.
Even before 1897, this concept about teleportation was started to come in the novels like "To Venus In Five Seconds"
But the truth is that Teleportation is possible at Quantum Level!
Shocking right?
To explain this, I'll tell you one example.
When you take a picture of a flower and send it to your friend who lives in another city using mail.
At first, they will receive your mail and they will take a color print of that flower.
Note: Here only information is passed from one end to another end, Not the exact flower!
This is a simple example to explain teleportation.
In quantum mechanics, Teleportation could be possible when we try to send the subatomic particle of an atom-like position, momentum, and intrinsic spin.
And this should be done to the rest of the trillion atoms present in our body!
After completing this, the whole body could be teleported!
According to the uncertainty principle, when we try to find the position and momentum of a material, Only one could be found whereas the other one will collapse.
For example, when the electrons are revolving around the proton and neutron, And we try to find the position of an electron with the help of a microscope.
By making the photon strike on a particular electron, the electron's position could be found.
But the problem is, after making the photon strike on the electron and observing its position, the momentum of the electron is affected due to the photon emitted by the microscope!
Take this as an example to understand the uncertainty principle which was given by Eisenberg.
Then how can we find the position, intrinsic spin, and momentum of a subatomic particle?
And here comes the concept of quantum entanglement!
QUANTUM ENTANGLEMENT:
Entanglement literally means bonding.
And this could be done by many methods.
For example, if we pass a photon through a barium borate crystal, it will be segregated into two twin particles.
And these twin particles share their property 50% between them.
When one of the twin particles spins on the left side, the other twin particle will spin on the right side!
Many experiments were conducted to analyse the similar properties between these two twin particles.
They have conducted an experiment by placing these twin particles at a distance of one meter and analysed the same properties between these two spin particles.
Even these two twin particles were kept on two islands that were 97 km apart from each other.
In this case, also, the properties between these twin particles were exactly the same!
China had gone one step ahead and tested these two spin particles by keeping one in the earth and another spin particle 2,000 km away from the earth in a satellite.
And they also noted that their properties are acting the same!
But einstein fears this phenomenon and coined a name called "Spooky Reaction"
Because it is different from the theories of physics!
And we couldn't find the reason behind this similar property among them.
This is the reason for his fear.
By using this quantum entanglement, the position, intrinsic spin, and momentum of a subatomic particle are analysed.
And using these experiments, they have proved teleportation at the quantum level.
Here is the question that arises among us.
If teleportation is possible at the quantum level, then this could be also applicable to teleport humans?
But the problem also arises here.
The whole human body comes under classical physics.
But the atoms come under quantum physics!
There are no explanations for quantum entanglement in classical physics.
But quantum entanglement is possible in quantum mechanics.
Teleporting Memories:
Then you would ask a question, Could the memories also be teleported from one place to another place?
Well, there are some possibilities!
Because 100000000000 cells were dead and produced in our body.
Starting from January and ending in December, you are not the same human being.
You are 80% different according to your cells.
After three years, total cells in your body will be dead and produce other sets of cells.
Neuron cells have a lifespan of 36 months.
Some of the cells have a lifespan of even two-three days.
But our memories were still traveling with us without any change.
This is the reason why I say we could also teleport memories.
Misconception regarding Teleportation:
Teleportation isn't that easy as shown in the movies!
Imagine that, finding the details about one atom is still very difficult.
There are trillions of atoms in our body!
At present, it is not possible in classical physics.
When we are sending the details of these trillions of atoms to another place, if one of the details is missed, then the whole process ends in failure.
CONCLUSION:
We are in the early stage of this teleportation.
So it is very difficult to come up with teleportation.
It is like studying airplanes without any knowledge about air molecules!.
And one thing I want to say to you.
We are not quantum, and we couldn't compare teleportation at the atomic level.
And also, we could not ignore this concept.
Once upon a time, mobile, internet were fantasy. But now you are reading this blog which was published in some other end of the world and you are on the other end.
This could be unimaginable in those times.
But it had come into existence.
Who knows today's fantasy will be tomorrow's practical life!
Please don't search and watch those funny videos showing teleportation.
They are fake videos!
And finally, I'll give you a question.
What is your perspective regarding teleportation? Reel Or Real?
