Teleportation breakthrough made
Scientists have performed successful teleportation on atoms for the first time, the journal Nature reports.
The feat was achieved by two teams of researchers working independently on the problem in the US and Austria.

The ability to transfer key properties of one particle to another without using any physical link has until now only been achieved with laser light.

Experts say being able to do the same with massive particles like atoms could lead to new superfast computers.

3. Sheez, I'm rapidly thinking about becoming
a Luddite. I don't want more complicated technology to deal with. I just want to watch the trees grow anymore. I'm in burnout and meltdown with gadgets. Every item you purchase now has some gizmo in it that sucks electricity or needs to be programmed. I don't need stuff that needs to be programmed faster.

Enough, already!!!
