Scientists JUST Teleported the first Object ever from Earth into Space

Published on Jul 16, 2017Chinese scientists successfully teleported an object from the Earth's surface to an orbiting satellite for the first time ever.A photon — a tiny sub-atomic particle — was "transported" from the Gobi Desert to China's Micius satellite some 310 miles above the surface.The Guardian reported it's a new record distance for quantum teleportation, which occurs when the complete properties of one particle are instantaneously transferred to another — in effect teleporting it to a distant location.The technique has been in use since the 1990s, but it's the first time this has been done from Earth to space over such a long distance.USA TODAYhttps://www.usatoday.com/story/tech/science/2017/07/13/beam-me-up-scientists-teleport-1st-object-ever-earth-into-space/475713001/Clips, images credit: ESA/HUBBLE, ESO, NASA & Wikimedia CommonsMusic credit: YouTube Audio LibraryCry - Vibe Tracks

Exactly Jen they have probably already done the teleportation years ago.
