No teleportation is not possible. Even with the use of technology, we are no where close to that kind of technology.


Strange that you should say that, since physicists have already teleported photons and other small particles in a laboratory setting.

In additon, the US Air Force commissioned a study by one Dr. Eric W. Davis (I believe this is him) on teleportation in 2001. The Davis report identified 5 different types of teleportation - designated by the letters sf, p, vm, q, and e. Guess what? The report defined p-teleportation as "the conveyance of persons or inanimate objects by psychic means", gives several pages of summary on the current body of knowledge and interesting experiments conducted by Uri Geller and the Chinese, and then reccomends:
Davis report p. 62 wrote:
A research program improving on and expanding, or implementing novel variations of, the Chinese and Uri Geller-type experiments should be conducted in order to generate p-teleportation phenomenon [sic] in the lab... An experimental program similar in fashion to the [previously described] Remote Viewing program should be funded at $900,000 - $1,000,000 per year in parallel with a theoretical program funded at $500,000 per year for an initial five-year duration... An experiment definition study should be conducted... which should be funded at $80,000 for one year.


So, in summary: not only is your statement incorrect, it runs contrary to the opinions of scientists employed by the US government.

Teleportation Physics Study, Dr. Eric W. Davis, prepared for Air Force Research Laboratory, August 2004: 1.7MB PDF

I highly reccomend that anyone with interest in the subject read pp. 55-62 of the Teleportation Physics Study; those are the pages dealing with p-teleportation.

By what I meant, It is impossible to teleport full human beings from point A to point B, for now at least. By teleporting by using only you own means, you brain will have to remember where every cell is in your body, then transport it over to another point of existence, then put it back together again.

If the method you described were the only method possible of teleporting, then I would concede that it is impossible.

Fortunately, it isn't the only method. Now, it may still be impossible, but I find impossibility to be a useless concept. A breakthrough occurs when someone finds a way to make the impossible merely improbable; from there it is only a matter of engineering to make the improbable commonplace.

Instead of saying teleportation is impossible, we'll just say that it's improbable.
