Practice Reading: Fill in the Blanks (Dropdown) ID: #49330 Matter Transport
Instructions
"Beam  me  up,  Scotty!"  It's  one  of  the  most  famous  lines  in  the  "Star  Trek"  franchise  and  refers  to  the    matter  transportation  device  or  "transporter"  on  every  ship  in  the  galaxy.  The  transporter  dematerializes  entire  humans  (and  other  objects)  and  sends  their  constituent  particles  to  another  destination  where  they  are  perfectly  .  The  best  thing  to  come  to  personal  point-to-point  transportation  since  the  elevator,  this  technology  seemed  to  have  been    by  every  civilization  in  the  show.  Will  it  ever  be  possible  to  develop  such  technology?  Recent  technology  has  made  it  possible  to  transport,  or  "beam"  if  you  will,  small  pools  of  particles  or  photons  from  one  location  to  another.  This  quantum  mechanics  phenomenon  is  known  as  "quantum  transport."  The  process  does  have  future    in  many  electronics  such  as  advanced  communication  technologies.  Applying  the  same  technique  to  something  as  large  and  complex  as  a  living  human  being  is  a  very  different  matter.
