Beam Me Up, Science: Teleportation Leaps from Sci-Fi to Reality

Can you think of stepping into a pod in New York and emerging seconds later in Tokyo? Sound impossible? Think again. The realm of teleportation, once relegated to the fantastical worlds of Star Trek and science fiction, is now materializing in laboratories across the globe.

it was all so simple then

day 1 fav oc: i can't separate them it's not fair....they drive me to madness a little bit which is great cause i can understand them better. featuring some old stuff and some new stuff i'm workin on

Scientists have created a new material that can conduct electricity without any resistance at room temperature (above 127°C) and normal pressure. It is based on a modified form of lead-apatite (LK-99). This is the first time such a feat has been achieved in the world.

Okay, I just saw a video talking about the concept of black light. Not like a black light, but a light that emits black. It would work like a regular light, but instead of light, it would emit darkness.

So, I started thinking about this concept a little bit more. Why don't we have a black "light"? Obviously, it wouldn't be a light since that's not scientifically possible. But why don't we have the concept of something that is able to suck in light and make an area darker. How would something like that even work?

Well, I came up with an idea. Now, it wouldn't necessarily function as a light. It would act more as a magnet. Sucking in only light. Naturally, my mind jumped straight to a black hole, but black holes suck in everything, not just light. So we need to make a few adjustments.

First, ima state a few tiny facts/problems. 1. This lamp can't work like a traditional magnet since light photons have no charge and negligible mass. 2. This lamp would have to utilize quantum physics because with quantum physics, there is a way to "trap" or channel photons.

So, with quantum manipulation, we are able to use a thing called a quantum blockade, which consists of specially designed structures to control the flow of light. If we can figure out how to get these on a smaller scale (small enough to fit on a lamp shade probably), then we can most likely use this to help attract our light.

Next, we would also have to use cavity trapping. This uses optical cavities to confine protons to small spaces. We can use this to keep our light trapped inside the main power source to keep our lamp running.

This would probably mean we would have to find a way to direct the light towards the cavity in the first place, then trap the light inside the cavity, then convert that light into energy which is a super technical sciency experiment that I don't feel like attempting to understand rn.

Now I'm thinking, for this lamp, it could work similar to solar power. When it is turned on, it can manipulate the light into energy to keep it going. This might be a bit tricky and would probably have to also rely on regular electricity to keep it going since it would run out of light really quickly. So if we wanna stick with the solar power technique, we could probably stick solar panels on the base, and you can just leave the lamp in the sun when you're not using it.

On the note of solar power, we can probably power the main core by trapping the light inside solar panels, and then the solar panels can power the lamp. But it would probably have to combine both solar panels and quantum manipulation, which would honestly change the game with solar powered devices. If solar panels could attract all the light in an area, imagine how much power we would get from that. A single pannel in a well placed field could power a city.

I got off track, but anyway, theatrically, it's possible. But we probably need to make a few more breakthroughs in quantum science before hoping to achieve an anti-light lamp for all you cave dwellers. Also, I would like to propose the brand name "Ton-18" for whoever sees this and decides to start making these. Or really just name the brand after a black hole and I will be happy

Also, take this entire post with a grain of salt, I am but a nerdy 14 year old who is just really obsessed with quantum physics

If I wasn’t so overrun with fear I would be so good at doing things like setting goals and achieving them

Listen. Percolating concepts and story-structure in my mind while I play a video game counts as writing.

Staring into space halfway through doing the dishes because a descriptive phrase came to me counts as writing.

Dissociating in the shower for fifteen minutes while arcane visions of conversations play behind my eyes counts as writing.

Communing with the miscreants in my head and receiving revelations about their thoughts and feelings about the events of their lives definitely counts as writing.

Sure my document is still nothing but intimidating white screen and lonely blinking cursor.

But I’ve been writing so much these past few days!

Your ruination inside a black hole the mass of the Sun typically takes less than microseconds. You could prolong your life expectancy to as much as a year in a black hole trillions of times more massive. You should aim for a bigger black hole if you intend to survive long enough to reflect on your experience. You may not want to prolong your demise if you cannot tolerate the existential dread, the gnawing suspicions, the cogent predictions about your unstoppable departure from this adventure.

If you find yourself approaching an utterly dark shadow, visible only in contrast to a bright background of light, beware. Avoid at all costs. Maintain a safe distance. If you get too close you will need all the fuel in the universe to escape, and that will not be enough. It will be hard to assess if the shadow is small and nearby or big and far away. If you do cross the shadow, you will be the first human to be dismembered by spacetime and obliterated near the infamous singularity, prophesized to be an actual hole in the center of the black hole, a tear in the fabric of spacetime that leads nowhere.

Writing prompt for humans discovering a planet inhabited by an alien civilization, but both us and them being completely unable to travel to each other - due to, you know, physics - and instead becoming interstellar pen palls via other types of signalling.

what that situation taught me was how extremely easy it is to convince people you’re an expert on something if you use a lot of words from the field. it DOES NOT matter what you are saying with the words,

Isn’t it canon that Russia is abused by her bosses? Like she’s forced to do all this shit or she’ll be punished? Anyway, Russia went from being the victim to the abuser and ngl I’d love to read a whole character analysis for why this is possible but I don’t know psychology enough to write it

my body is really not happy with the level of stress and effort I'm having to put out to teach this class and I don't know what to do about it

this conclusion is based on like one week of evidence (things looked like they were getting better for a minute last week and quite possibly could again) but I'm time blind so this is, obviously, the verdict for eternity and I'm doomed to this metaphorical oubliette

ugh

really disappointed i’m gonna have to start my game over from scratch apparently

Unity is deciding they’re gonna charge 20 cents per install?!?! if i give my game to 5 friends >I< have to pay a dollar?! what the fuck. bouncing to godot

guess i’m learning python this weekend
