Remind me, do we have anything resembling this in EVE? At the moment it looks as though it would only transfer about 5000 atoms at once (at the speed of light), but it's a start.
Rough summary:
Matter to be teleported is fired into and absorbed by a laser-trapped Bose-Einstein Condensate (BEC)The BEC releases energy in the form of some sort of tightly directed EM wave, containing information about the states of the particles absorbedThe wave travels at the speed of light and hits a receiver, another similarly trapped BEC.The receiving BEC spits out particles in the same states as those originally absorbed by the transmitting one.

How big is 5000 atoms?
Or how many atoms in a grain of sand? Trying to get a perspective on this scale. |

Lots and lots.
Originally by: Random Scientist Type Personage If the grain of sand is a cube 0.1 mm on a side that is 0.001 mm^3. Assume a density of 2 gm/mm^3 (just about any number will do) that is 0.002 gm. If the sand is SiO2 the molecular weight is 60 gm/mole or is 0.002/60 = 3.3x10^-5 moles. There are 6x10^23 units / mole, so the number of SiO2 units is about 2x10^19. Each SiO2 unit contains 3 atoms/ions so there are about 6x10^19 atoms/ions.

Very interesting.
There would seem to be major technological problems with scaling up both quantity and distance, but it's a good start.

Presumably, we teleport things from a container or wreck, in EVE, when we take them. 1500 meters is still 1.5kms- making something magically move from 1.5km away to my cargo hold sounds like teleportation to me.
Similar could be said of your pod magically docking with a ship from 100's of meters away, or drones disappearing from space and appearing in my drone bay when I click "scoop". --------

Dammit Jim! They'll never use that thing on my precious atoms. No Sir!

Teleportation does not exist. This is cloning.
Think of the movie "The Prestige" where the Tesla machine is used. *spoiler below if you haven't seen the movie*
* * * * * *
The audience were led to believe a magician was moved across the room at the speed of light, using the Tesla machine. However, the awful truth was the machine spawned a clone of the magician across the room, while a trapdoor at the base of the machine was used to kill the real magician.
In essence, this is what current experimental "teleportation" devices do. They analyze the original atoms into data, use that data to recreate the atoms in a different location, then they destroy the originals. The destruction of the original atoms is completely irrelevant; its only purpose is to help coin the whole operation as "teleportation" rather than "cloning."
