They're playing with strange stuff these days,

Says they're in the tabletop stage... you think

it's possible to go full scale?

The problem is with actual transport inside the field of effect.

The tabletop experiments are the equivalent, IMHO, of dumping vinegar into baking soda and calling it a volcano.

There's some interesting things with respect to particles at the quantum level "communicating" over a distance, but each time I read about it, I can't help thinking about that movie "The Fly".

I think, at least for the near term, we're going to have to be content finding ways to find faster taxis around the solar system instead of vacationing on a beach orbiting Vega unfortunately.
