Scientists Teleport Matter More Than Three Feet

yes.. but it would be only possible to send a copy of the orignal "transmitting matter" you will end up with 2 copies...

When I read the article there is no word about teleporting matter but about state of matterwhat is information.
Teleportation vs. other communications
What distinguishes this outcome as teleportation, rather than any other form of communication, is that no information pertaining to the original memory actually passes between ion A and ion B.
Instead, the information disappears when ion A is measured and reappears when the microwave pulse is applied to ion B.

Something that confuses me though; someone once told me that everything we do in 'public' science has already been done by the US government through military research long before, otherwise we'd never hear about it at all. If it hadn't been done by the US Government, this would be locked up and become a black project before info was leaked.
I'm not saying I accept this idea, but it does make sense doesn't it?

Another thing that annoys me; we can now teleport matter over three feet, but we still can't produce free energy on a workable scale. And this despite the vast discrepancy between the numbers of people working on each...
Now the JQI team, along with colleagues at the University of Michigan, has succeeded in teleporting a quantum state directly from one atom to another over a meter.
