I think the other way around: we don't have the knowledge or technology to even make a reasonably feasible teleportation theory.
Once we colonize the solar system, the next frontier to explore will be interstellar travel. I think research on faster than light travel will be what brings teleportation to us rather than the other way around.
- blackrock 6y agoSo.. invent faster than light travel, go to a distant planet rotating around a distant star, to find a bunch of friendly advanced aliens, that will bequeath us some advanced teleportation technology?
- pfdietz 6y agoI see no reason to think FTL will ever be possible. That FTL is a trope in SF stories doesn't meant it's an aspect of the reality, it just means that it enables one to write more interesting stories.
- Seb-C 6y agoWith our current knowledge and technology, you are right, but nobody knows what we might discover in the future. Even if FTL were indeed impossible, I think pursuing it would bring interesting discoveries and technologies.
