    1. Dig down to get past the sensationalism that is inherent with science journalism and read what’s actually happened

      > In the Stuttgart experiment, the quantum dots were separated only by an optical fiber of about 10 m length. „But we are working on achieving considerably greater distances,“ says Strobel.

      > Another aim is to increase the current success rate of teleportation, which currently stands at just over 70%. Fluctuations in the quantum dot still lead to slight differences in the photons.

      Good first step but now we need other teams to replicate the results and still a long way to go before practical applications (a 30% failure rate isn’t usable to transmit any actual data).

      “Hey, I’m a photon! Look at me! lol! And—oop! I’m over here now! lol!”

    3. 30% fail rate? We’re not getting cool Star Trek stuff in this lifetime are we? Gen X grumble grumble.

      (Futurama-styled time skip)

      And we’d like to present this award to the peerless scientists who invented quantum teleportation which made cool Star Trek stuff a reality in our lifetime!

      Yea it’s distance now, but soon it’ll be time and realities. Then you’ll have a professor and grad students stuck in the Middle Ages. ^s

      Source: currently reading about it now – Crichton’s “Timeline”. Wild if this one becomes closer to reality then Jurassic park lol

      Sci fi ass advancement, if only we focused much more on this, much more money need to go to science

      The funniest part about quantum computing is it’s all basically trying to replicate a smoke signal.

      * Something was teleported!
      * Actually no particles were moved, only information was transmitted.
      * To achieve the transmission, a cable was needed.
      * Transmission speed is not instant, but limited to the speed of light.
      * Maximum distance is 10 meters.

      Hey guys, I just „teleported“ this post onto reddit, in a word‘s first achievement!

      What’s the ultimate goal of this tech or is this just pure science? Presumably we can’t have FTL communication so what does this actually do.
