Has solid matter been teleported yet? Info encoded light was done a few years back.?

Question

If so,would it be an answer to interstellar travel? Also where exactly are the atoms during trasit?

Answer 1

So far, it has only done by quantum teleportation and has not involve any matter...it only affects the quantum state of a particle.

Answer 2

Hi. The short answer is no. To teleport any material would involve breaking it down to constituent molecules, or even atoms, then re-assembling them at the destination. This may be possible with something as simple as a gas but anything with structure would be MUCH more difficult. Not impossible, just very difficult.
