"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.
