Why You Don't Want Teleportation

[@becausescience]

Thanks for watching! Many of you bringing up the problem with relativity -- what is someone like Nightcrawler teleporting relative to? The Earth, the Sun, the Solar System? What happens to his velocity? This is my point. NONE of this is ever explained, and if we try, a number of problems present themselves. I don't like to just say "the super power takes care of it" because then what can we learn? See you in Footnotes! *And don't worry, I am working on episodes about super power you DO want* --KH

[@garethjones86]

This has always been my biggest problem with time travel too. Not sure if anyone has discussed this on here before as I'm new to the channel (it's great by the way) and this is my first comment on here but without the ability to teleport, time travel is effectively useless. If you did the classic back to future time jump going from 1985 back to 1955, over those 30 years the sun will have moved around the galaxy roughly 3.6x10^12 meters. If you went back in time without also teleporting through space you would end up an awful long way from where you wanted to be. Have you done an episode on time travel? If not, I think you should.

[@janis2280]

@Because Science What if that teleportation is similar to shooting moving target where you don't shoot where it is but where it will be? And when entering dimension you have your velocity and exiting you keep same velocity (dimension doesn't slow you down)? P.S. If dimension would slow superhero down that would also put huge G forces to stop instantly if you go with Earth's speed. So if dimension do slow you down it shouldn't be instant stop but incremental. In time it takes to disappear and reaper you shouldn't lose that much of speed relevantly.

It's actually explained in the comics that nightcrawler has a sixth sense in addition to his teleportation he has control over how fast he reappears as well as the momentum when he enters back into our world and the orientation that he's facing. It's why he can teleport onto moving objects. His speed automatically matches the plane of existence he goes to.

[@MartinPuedes]

This aspect is kind of part of 1 of the flaws of teleportation that hasn't been discussed in this video that is also kind of important. The mechanics of the transportee. Do the cells transport through the alternate dimension theory. Or the whole body. If the whole body it wouldn't successfully enter if there's a wall, because it would be bumped out of the way due to the inability to displace the solid mass, or if it does displace the solid mass would the wall subsequently teleport a distance equal to your teleportation if it was instant in the opposite direction. Or if it's your cells/particles how does the teleportee dissolve and resubstantiate, and how painfull or how woul that effect you. Effect: Would the teleportation process reset the polarity of energy stored, and would that as a result make you not have a mind afterwards. Basically having to relearn everything the way a kid would since you don't know how to do any actions, like crying like a baby is already a step up from that. Pain: I mean a punch impacts your atoms and cells. If you're whole body's cell's seperated that would be something your body wouldn't even be able to signal a warning of to you in regards to pain since pain is a signal that has to be transported in the first place. But I could imagine during reassembly that your body would truly be trying to signal it's disappreciation of what that was.

[@2theother]

xaldiac the issue is you would still have to know the relative position of where you are going in the actual solar orbit of the earth. Yea you may think “Paris France, that bench I know” but that bench is not technically anywhere near where it physically was when you were there, so you wouldn’t actually know it’s exact location. If anything the jumper version is actually a bit worse as you would essentially be opening a portal into open space every time (if it put the portal in the location you WERE at, you would be in space) I love the movie Jumper FYI just figured I’d throw my hat out there

[@ArthurEKing8472]

Kyle, you are also forgetting how fast the sun is travelling around Sagittarius A, (around 230,000 m/s) or how fast the Milky Way Galaxy is travelling in our local super cluster (I don't know, but fast). Those speeds dwarf your original calculations by several orders of magnitude. I think the crux of your entire argument (and it's Achilles Heel) is the concept of absolute or relative position. Effectively there's no particularly poignant point that can be attributed as the origin point in our universe without some sort of perfectly valid and legitimate argument as to why it shouldn't be. Ergo, ALL positions in space are actually relative positions. So however many metres away you are travelling, if you were using the centre of the earth as the fixed point that your teleportations are relative to, then ALL the math you just said after the rotational differential is utterly meaningless, as the position you're moving to or from is relative not to some arbitrary fixed origin, and rather is relative to the large massive body you want to remain on. If this is the case, then nightcrawlers teleportation limit of a few miles makes sense and can be considered "safe" WITHOUT some kind of quantuum supercomputer doing the calculations for him. Although your statement about the air-replacing is completely valid, lol.

[@Ultiminati]

Welcome to the footnotes :D

[@MichaelDerryGameitect]

Yes, the whole episode was about frames of reference. I was expecting to hear some additional reasons not to want the power. With the example of Portal's portals, the entry and exit points are fixed relative to the moving reference frame of Earth's surface and momentum is preserved relative to those points. Teleportation, of the type described, should be able to work the same way, almost regardless of the conditions of the means of travel (other dimensions) between those points. It's also possible for the alternate dimension to be linked somehow to the movement of the Earth. Just like the perception of a 3D object in 2D space, if you pick up a chess piece (the surface of the board is what's visible) the circle representing its mass would disappear when picked up and reappear when set back down. It can be moved faster this way than by sliding it and can avoid obstacles not possible while sliding but it still shares the same reference frame for momentum and everything else.

[@theghostoftheuchiha1999]

This is why I like the Movie: JUMPER in JUMPER there is actually a more realistic version of Teleportation. In Jumper the Jumpers have Teleportation powers that create "anchor's" in reality on Earth. These Anchors are always locked on Earth and aren't effected by the Earth's spin and velocity. These Anchor's are locked in by longitude and latitude and you need to be able to make sure they aren't inside of something like a fence/wall/the floor/the ceiling.

[@sevorisdoe2846]

Dammit Jim, traversable wormholes aren't teleportation! Well okay, by the Sci-Fi definition of teleportation, projecting a wormhole mouth to a desired place and pushing your mass-energy through it would be theoretically viable. You can inflate a wormhole mouth from the far end. The trick is propelling the wormhole mouth... especially making it come to a stop. Because otherwise you come out of that mouth with the velocity of the mouth, which can end badly. Though it would sure look cool, projecting a tiny wormhole mouth with a bright plasma jet coming out one end, propelling it to its destination...

[@DerpingtonJr]

That makes me wonder if an Einstein-Rosen Bridge would theoretically be able to have its entrances/exits move relative to each other. The theoretical use-case for this would allow for the ends of the bridge to be located at fixed points on two different planets' surfaces so you would have to worry about the planets moving relative to each other. of course, the answer to all these hypotheticals is almost always, "further research is required"™

[@thetheoreticalphysicist5852]

I just now thought of the fact that Generation 4's My Little Pony's way of teleportation could takes care of a lot of these points. If you've watched the show then you'll see that anypony (by that I mean unicorn or Alicorn) who can teleport usually does so with a magic bubble surrounding them before and after they have teleported to their destination. When ever a pony teleports, they do so with a lightning sound effect which could be the rapid displacent of air molicules that would be in the same place that the pony would teleport to. Then there's some other more magical elements that would do things like stopping them from bumping into another living creature or a wall, and stuff like that. But still, eventhough it was probably unintentional, I think that it's nice to spot some similarities in how telortation is explained here, and how it is shown in mlp.

Hey Kyle, in the novel Jumper by Steven Gould, teleportation is shown as a sort of "dimensional button" effect connecting two spacial points. Basically an anchored portal for a fraction of a second. Also, in the subsequent movie, it is implied the "jumps" can be tracked and the holes are shown to persist after the initial teleportation, meaning they have a measureable affect on the linked environments. The teleporters are also shown to be vulnerable to electric shocks. These factors seem to imply that the fictional mechanics of jumping have electromagnetic properties. It also would mean the direction sense of the jumper would be biological, possibly like how migrating birds can use the Earth's magnetic field to navigate. This is all guess work of course, but I'd be interested in seeing your take on the physics, energy requirements, and practicalities of this approach. Maybe another video?

Update to my previous. If Nightcrawler moves through another dimension, then we can imagine how this works with a two-dimensional metaphor. Consider a two dimensional creature living on a tabletop, unable to see the third dimension. If I pick it up, move it, and set it down, then, from a two dimensional perspective, it will seem to have teleported. But we know that isn't what happened because we can see the third dimension. If the table is moving or similar, that isn't a problem. That two-dimensional world is just a slice of the three-dimensional reality. Everything is connected. Perhaps Nightcrawler lives in a three-dimensional slice of a four-dimensional universe. In that case, his power could make a fourth-dimensional step, move him the required distance, then take another fourth-dimensional step to set him back into his own reality. Because all of reality is connected, he doesn't need to worry about any changes in momentum or the movement of the Earth. All of the forces upon him are preserved because he never left reality; he just moved through it in an unconventional way.

I can disprove your theory. for your example imagine the world is a lazy susan. it is spinning very quickly, if you pick the salt shaker off it and tried to put it down again two things happen, 1 you have to STOP the shaker from moving and then you have to speed it back up to put it down.

For that to be true, he would need to teleport in the same direction and in the same longitude relative to the earth surface, otherwise he would "pop" at even faster than mach 1.4.

[@rayceeya8659]

One little issue I have with this argument. It seems to be predicated on any point in space having some sort of absolute location. It seems to echo the old ether theory. The Earth is spinning, the Earth is orbiting, the sun is orbiting the galactic core, the galaxy is moving even faster through the universe. But there is no universal space coordinate system. That implies there is some sort of origin point that we can measure everything from. Some fixed center of the universe. As near as we can tell no such point exists. Therefore there's no way to measure "absolute velocity". As Einstein proved, everything is relative.

[@TerryProthero]

This is a common mistake. I remember Shad from Shadiversity talking about time travel and suggesting that you would end up somewhere in space if you didn't also space travel. Kyle, I think, said something similar. I'm fairly certain that the only origin point that exists would be a reference point that is stationary relative to you. So if I marked an X on my living room floor and stood on it, it could be said that I am not moving in space. If I disappeared and reappeared a day later on that same X then it could be said that I moved in time but not space. No other coordinate system even makes sense. All locations in space need to be stated relative to some reference point. As you say, there is no absolute coordinate system. In fact, the universe doesn't even have a center. All points in space are the center of the universe. Everything is expanding in all directions.

If we assume you are in the center of that line then the shortest route to get to the other side of the line is 50 miles (or 100 if you actually want to end up directly across the line from where you started . However; if you could utilize the third dimension, then you could step over the line and your total distance traveled is just the width of the line . The longest distance you could travel "instantly" would be limited to how far "up" you could step.

My favorite examples of Teleportation in fiction are the ones shown in the "A Certain" Franchise (made up of the series "A Certain Magical Index", "A Certain Scientific Railgun" and "A Certain Scientific Accelerator"). In this franchise, Teleportation exists in 5 different variants, all of which have their own advantages and disadvantages. The most commonly seen type is just called "Teleportation", as used by the character Shirai Kuroko. She can teleport up to 81.5 meters at a time, and in order to teleport at all, she has to calculate her original coordinates and the destination coordinates in 11 dimensions, and if she tries to teleport further than 50 meters I think it is, her accuracy drops from a few millimeters to 1.5 meters, which could lead to her teleporting into a wall, or out in front of a train, depending on where she uses it. She can also teleport any object she touches, up to a maximum weight of 138 kilograms, regardless of size, and again, the closer to the limit, the lower the accuracy. The second-most commonly seen type is called "Move Point", and is used by another character, Musujima Awami, who can teleport objects without having to touch them, up to a maximum range of just over 1 kilometer, with a weight limit of around 4 metric tons. Enough to drop a building on her enemies. Naturally, this sounds like a more powerful ability, but unlike Teleportation, Move Point doesn't cause matter in the destination coordinates to be displaced when an object is teleported, so teleporting into a wall could cause serious injury. In fact, this is explained early on as the reason why Musujima doesn't teleport herself around unless she has no other choice at all, because she's already been close to dying after teleporting into a wall. The third type is called "Asportation", and is considered a stronger version of Teleportation and Move Point, as it has the accuracy and speed of Teleportation, but the range of Move Point, except the limits are increased since it's a Level 5 ability, where the other are Level 4. It is only ever seen used by a dead person, whose powers have been amplified to make it Level 5, even though originally they were Level 3 and much weaker than "Teleportation". Also, all these types of teleportation are mentally taxing, leading to a limit to how many times in a row a teleporter can use their ability. And they require one to focus on nothing but the calculations, meaning that in most cases, they're 100% worthless in battle, unlike Nightcrawler's which doesn't seem to have any limits at all...

I think it would be a fairly same assumption that teleportation is based on where you are relative stuff, so it changes your position relative to the earth or a vehicle, which negates quite a few problems, and you could just go farther and say that it keeps your velocity or whatever you want to call it relative as well, so teleporting to the other side of the earth wouldn’t be a problem at all because you’re not being thrown into space because you’re moving relative to the earth, and you’re not getting ripped apart because you’re moving the same way relative to where you ended up, not relative to where you started, so you’re still moving with the earth

2 objects cannot occupy the same space at the same time. Either the stone gives, or you do would. It would also be physically impossible for you to teleport into something. That would be like trying to push your hand into a rock, wont happen. Even if your hand appeared in the rock, well it just couldn't. Possibly the molecules could be crammed together, still killing you, however I doubt it. A Star Trek transporter, for example, could beam you into solid rock because it separates your molecules to move you from one space to another. But a dimensional form of teleportation could not.

[@michaelmcchesney6645]

I am a big fan of the “Jumper” series of books by Stephen Gould. A visually stunning, but otherwise mediocre film with Hayden Christensen was loosely based on the first book. There is no blond Sam Jackson character in the books. The teleportation rules were fairly typical. A jumper can jump anywhere they can see or can remember well enough. It is learned through experimentation that jumpers don't carry momentum through a jump (you can be falling off a tall building and jump to the ground without any momentum) but they do match the local frame and thus don't experience any of the issues Kyle describes. In the last two books it is discovered jumpers can come out of a jump with whatever momentum they want. In the last book, the 17-year-old daughter of the main characters from the first two books starts her own space program.

So, in theory, Dr Strange style Teleportation is the one you want, and the time to establish the portal we see in the movie could be logically explained as anchoring the portal to the relative cosmic location and velocity and other Sciencey calculations.

But what about atmospheric pressure differences between the two locations (if they're on different planets)? You could open a portal and be violently sucked in or blasted backwards.

[@zachary8586]

Not certain about other planets, but the portals we see Doctor Strange open start small and gradually Dilate. When the portal is still small you would feel that sucking force and close the portal before the forces become large enough to suck you through into unwanted locations. the big, unforeseeable problem is toxicity of the other atmosphere. Which you couldn't know about before breathing it in, at least, with human perceptions.

I think the more effective and useful version of teleportation would be the manipulation of the probability of Quantum Tunneling. If you had this power (Dr. Manhattan I think) you could simply raise the probability that all the particles in your body quantum tunneled to wherever you wanted to go.

[@andrewward5891]

The Canadian super hero Vindicator (or Guardian) has a super suit that allows him to render himself motionless so he stays still while the world revolves around him. So essentially he instantly moves at about 1000 mph (the speed the earth revolves) and to naked eye seems to be teleporting. Of course he has an iron man like battle suit with a force field that protects him from being destroyed by the instant acceleration (he usually pulls this stunt while flying so he doesn’t get hit by trees or buildings at 1000 mph). Of course that’s not taking into account how the planet itself is also moving so I guess he would be likely to end up in space or embedded deep underground if he did that for real.

I think the Jumper series does a good job of explaining these problems. In the second book the main character, David, who can teleport, experiments with his powers. They find that he is folding space-time, not like a wormhole but he over laps to places in space and time so he is standing in two places at once for a couple milliseconds. In doing this he matches frames of reference, so he can teleport from a "stationary" place to like a plane, and be standing still on the plane. Later he and his daughter are able to change their velocity consciously when they teleport. So they can teleport in place but increase their velocity upward and launch themselves into the sky along with other applications. He teleports by visualizing the place he wants to go and has to have been there before. I think its not like space-time coordinates but position in relation to other things. Later his daughter is able to teleport based on gps and altitude coordinates. The main problems they face is that when they teleport from one altitude to another they have a sudden altitude change so ear popping and stuff, and in more extreme cases David teleports to altitudes in between to adjust to the new pressure before moving on to his next destination.

[@tjpopp8688]

Jarrett Spurlock This was the first thing I thought of when I watched this video. Glad I’m not the only one to appreciate all the details the author put into making this power work. I’d also like to add, in the movie when David jumps, there is a shockwave that pushes matter out of his way. He created a crater in the bank vault when he is inexperienced and doesn’t have the ‘landing site’ quite right, and in the hospital when he jumps while distracted. Griffin used uses multiple jumps to reinforce the shockwave as a weapon. This shockwave would prevent a jumper from getting stuck inside a wall or rock at the landing site. When David or Griffin is calm and jumps precisely then the air from the landing site precisely replaces the vacuum from the departure site so there is no BOOM or shockwave. Lastly because space is warped around him he is able to bring his immediate surroundings with him. When he learn to ‘twin’ he can hold the space warp open and high pressure air, water, and other atmospheric particles travel thru the warp. Griffin seams to be able to bring things traveling at the same speeds as him (cars) thru the warp. If it can be lifted or move under its own power thru the warp it’s ‘jumpable’.

Yes this is another method for transportation.
