Moving stuff by destroying it here and rebuilding it there, perfectly, instantly.

means The (still hypothetical) act of transporting matter or a person instantly from one place to another without crossing the space in between.

from Coined in the 1930s by writer Charles Fort, who smashed together the Greek 'tele-' (far off, as in telephone or television) with the Latin 'portare' (to carry, the root of transport and porter). He needed a word for the odd vanishings and reappearances of objects he collected in his books of strange phenomena — science fiction borrowed it soon after and never gave it back.

actual science
quantum teleportation moves information, not matter
the catch
original copy must be destroyed to work
current record
particles teleported over 1,200 km via satellite
your body
would need 10^28 bits of data transmitted
