MikeChino writes "A physicist at Tohoku University in Japan has figured out how to teleport energy from one point in the universe to another. The technique is based upon prior research that shows it's possible to teleport information from one location to another, and involves making a measurement on each [of] an entangled pair of particles. The measurement on the first particle injects quantum energy into the system, and then by carefully choosing the measurement to do so on the second particle, it is possible to extract the original energy. Heady stuff, but essentially it means that you can inject energy at one point in the universe and extract it from somewhere else without changing the energy of the system as a whole."

This early in the morning reading something like this makes me go... WFT?

I've got an image of cosmic jokes on lesser advanced unsuspecting aliens, mildly shocking them from afar making all the molecules in their undergarments leap simultaneously one foot to the left....

cant wait for countries at war start teleporting nuclear explosions >_<

No they wont, nuclear weapons are used as threat, only one country has ever used them. But Im sure they will teleport "enemies of the state" directly to their holding cell and kidnapping will get a new level as anyone can be taken anywhere.

only 1 used in an act of war. And that was during a WW. Whenever next WW happening, anyone betting on NO NUCLEAR weapons being used?
Nuclear weapon is "only" a threat coz once u explode one at enemy gate u gate blown away buy enemy and his allies. With teleportation u can blow up everyone u dont like, making nukes feasible again.

Unless the enemy teleports away

**** war - everyone will be too busy, what with all the possibilities for pr0n

LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL
