Damn... Where are you coming from? When are they gonna man up and invent teleporters?

He happened in one of the first tests. Gotta crack a few eggs to make an omelette.

Michio Kaku says it's gonna happen though.

Dr Michio Kaku said “You know the expression "Beam me up Scotty"?

We used to laugh at it. We used to laugh when someone talked about teleportation, but we don't laugh anymore.

Quantum teleportation already exists [and] I think within a decade we will teleport the first molecule.

And this has already happened.

Trade Rumors: How Will the Knicks Mess This Up?

Give the Knicks credit for this—they always keep things interesting.

It's the middle of August, yet New York finds itself immersed in potentially franchise-altering trade rumors. Carmelo Anthony's name continues to be a mainstay of the rumor will, with the Knicks star reportedly eyeing a move to Houston.
In addition, the Knicks have been one of the main teams mentioned in Kyrie Irving trade talks, with Kristaps Porzingis being mentioned as a potential Cavaliers target.

The Crossover's Madelyn Burke, Rohan Nadkarni and DeAntae Prince recently sat down and debated what the Knicks should do next.

Madelyn Burke: The Knicks have limited assets yet seem to be in on the conversation in two trades. What moves will make the most sense for the long-term benefit of the franchise?

Rohan Nadkarni: I think it actually starts with moving Melo. I don’t know if Kyrie is really the fight fit with the Knicks. But Melo has kind of been there as the awkward step dad in the situation the whole time, he doesn’t really make a lot of sense…

Burke: You know, Melo grilling in the backyard…

Nadkarni: … [laughs] it looked like it became an ego contest between him and Phil Jackson, and Melo won. He outlasted Phil and that’s great, I’m happy for him.
At the same time I think he’s realized it’s time to move on, obviously he’s trying to make his way to Houston, but if you look at the Knicks right now they have some good pieces.
They’ve got [Wily] Hernangomez, they’ve got [Kristaps] Porzingis, they’ve got [Frank] Ntilikina, all guys you can build a core around, build a team around.
Then you still have Melo, [Joakim] Noah, you signed Tim Hardaway this offseason, you’ve got to find a way to move these vets, get rid of these vets. I think if they’re really looking toward the future, it starts with moving Melo.

DeAntae Prince: Yeah, moving Melo is definitely important, but I’d say because Kyrie is such a better basketball player at this point, that anything involves him is more important than whatever involves Melo, and his hoodies, and his late-night run at Chelsea Piers.

Burke: If Hoodie Melo was playing this would be a different conversation, but there’s no hoods in the NBA. Even in the Nike uniforms, we tried, but Nike didn’t include the hoods.

But here’s a question too: If Kyrie gets moved to New York and Melo stays, does that make it more enticing for Melo and Kyrie to team up there?

Nadkarni: Well, we saw James Dolan had a lot of patience with Phil Jackson. He’s kind of taken a step back from the basketball operations side of this whole thing.
I think he’s going to have patience and give the guys a chance. Steve Mills is kind of the cockroach of the Knicks’ nuclear war. He’s just outlasted everything.
I don’t know what kind of dirt he has on Dolan, but he’s lasted a long time.
I don’t think the Knicks have to make a splashy move right now—the best thing they could do is to not do anything. Keep Porzingis, don’t make any crazy movements.
They already made this [Tim] Hardaway signing, which is just insane. They already need to find a way to get out from under that one.

Burke: Between Hardaway and Noah, they are so anchored down in commitments.

Prince; Yeah, the Knicks have a lot of fires to put out in a lot of other places. So I think they’ll be fine with staying pat for a little awhile and trying to let this team build from the ground up because they’re definitely on the ground floor right now.

They didn't really teleport the molecule though
 
For all intents and purposes they did.

Not really. From the article you linked:

Both Munro and Wiseman noted that often people think of teleportation as moving an actual object (or a photon) form one place to another. "People have this 'Star Trek' approach," Munro said. "They think of atoms being teleported. What we're moving is information from one [quantum] bit to another [quantum] bit. There's no matter — only information. That's hard to get your head around."
