Teleportation II Posted on October 5, 2006 by Robin Reply Whilst we have been able to teleport single atoms and light for a few years now, finally another breakthrough has been made in Denmark, where they have managed to teleport a macroscopic atomic object containing thousands of billions of atoms half a metre.
