that would hurt 0_o and also, you would need a reciever to go to at the other end yes? then you'd already be there

You'd be there, but how do you make your starting velocity into a direct proportion to what the velocity of what the receiver's speed is?  You can't.

Of course the whole concept is theoretically impossible, but if it were you can see it wouldn't be practical at all.

Hmm... what if you created a teleportation device that slowed down your molecules bit by bit so you'd gradually slow down. But that wouldn't be instant transportation, and therefore not teleportation.

Then how come Akuma can do it? Wait... if you were to only teleport a few meters(like Akuma), it would be possible

Whoa! Me too!

We're bending time and space, and if this keeps up, the entire universe will eventually explode, and then

Actually, you are quite wrong.

First off, you are right in that, at the equator, a person is technically moving 1000 miles an hour. And at the pole, it is practically nothing. But that is relative to the center of the earth. If you made your reference point the sun for example, both are moving at thousands of miles per hours... IF you went to the galaxy, which the sun goes around while the earth goes around the sun while we go around the earth, we go much, much faster. And then if you throw in the universe, things just get crazy. Theres alot more to that story.

So, yes, that is true. It's bearing on teleportation, however, is absolutly none.True teleportaion would involve a worm-hole, and the bending of the 3rd dimension by the fifth to create a jump point into a new place. Think about it this way. Imagine an ant walking in a straightline on a newspaper. In you curled the newspaper in such a way, the ant will travel in 3 dimensions, while still following the "1-dimensional" path. By curling it, you actually 'teleporting" it back to the start of the line, which it could not have done if it was true one dimensional.

The same theory applies to the 4th dimension, time. We can bend it using the higher dimensions to teleport ourselves.

See? It is possible, in theory.

Teleportation (what else could I have been talking about?)- yet another reason why it wouldn't work.

Right now we are moving relative to the Earth's rotational pole at different speeds, depending on your latitude.  For example I am hurtling at 800 miles per hour relative to Earth's rotational pole, or at the equator you'd move over 1000 miles per hour.  In the center of Antarctica you are almost moving 0 miles per hour.  If teleportation were possible and you teleported from the equator to the center of Antarctica, the resulting G forces of moving 1000 miles per hour to suddenly almost 0 miles per hour would either rip you to shreds or fling you miles into the sky or any direction.

Just thought I'd point this out.  No other reason.  Discuss other reasons it doesn't work and such.

Would that really make a difference since in both frames of reference, you feel as if you're moving none?

But saying science won't find a way to counteract this is dumb

I can teleport from here to my room... by walking...

I honestly think teleporting will just make more fat people (like me) in this world...

Never knew you were...

Ah, time travel also poses an interesting question.  With Earth flying thousands of miles around the sun, if you time travel 6 months into the future you'd end up in space, because the point where you left from would be halfway around the sun by then, wouldn't you?

Earth's revolution around the sun makes no difference in teleportation because every point on Earth is affected the same way by it's revolution.

Mm-hm.

Crazy and Impossible?

===Flashback===
Creativity Course Teacher:Alright class, let's see what you've created in 5 minutes with the leaf, stick and strip of plastic I gave you. Patrick, what have you created?

Patrick:A bazooka with heat seeking missles and a lock on system.

CCT:Um... what about you, Jacelyn?

Jacelyn:A device to turn air into electricity.

CCT:=.=' What about you, Helltank[not real name]?

Me:A time travel machine. With air conditioning, of course.

===End Flashback===

Of course, there's no way we could ever time travel. I completely agree, geohenden. 

@Kileymeister:What I'm worried about is that you'd time travel 1000000 years into the future at the summit of Mount Everest or something, then find the erosion has made Everest shorter by 10 meters, and you drop 10 meters. Or even worse, it has somehow GROWN, and you're stuck 10 meters from the summit, trapped inside the unyeilding rock forever.

Connection points between time machines or a time machine in different points in time could be the way to solve this (of course you could not go back any farther than the first functional time machine's creation)

Good point.

I'll get to work building the first receiver to maximize the distance into the past we can travel.

I always had the idea that you would be able to punch in a really long code that would tell the time machine where to go.

So if you punched in a really long code for the top of Mount Everest, then it would take you back in time, AND to the top of Mount Everest, even if the Earth is halfway around the sun, or if Mount Everest moved/grew.

Same with the teleporter, you could punch in a code that would teleport you anywhere you wanted.

Although, it'll take so much time for scientists to program the time machine/teleporter to do that, that it'll be the end of the world (NOT 2012) before they're even close to finishing it.
