- Smaug123 9y agoNo way in effing hell am I getting into a car, even with tech advanced 100000 years from today ;) Not saying I'd ever get into a teleporter willingly. But remember that people have said this about most inventions at some point.
- yazaddaruvala 9y agoThere is another. Teleportation in Star Trek is "beaming", but worm holes are the alternate means of teleportation. There is no notion of death when traveling through a worm hole.
- krapp 9y agoThere was a Star Trek species called the T'Kon who used something like wormholes to create dimensional gates that let them just walk to other planets as easily as walking across the room. That was presented as a technological feat "sufficiently close to magic" even to the Federation. Wormholes in that universe seem to be rare and unstable and weird, though not nearly so much as in Farscape, where they seem to be able to access all of space and time, IIRC.
