Time travel and teleportation will have to wait. It may take centuries to master these technology. But within the coming decades, we will understand dark matter, perhaps test string theory, find planets which can harbor life, and maybe have Brain 2.0, i.e. our consciousness on a disk which will survive even after we die.
You can be in London at 10 o'clock and in New York at 10 o'clock. I have never found another way of being in two places at once.
If transportation technology was moving along as fast as microprocessor technology, then the day after tomorrow I would be able to get in a taxi cab and be in Tokyo in 30 seconds.
I'd just love magic. I'd love to be able to just click and transport. I'd be like a fairy little godmother, I think, going round hearing what people wish for and seeing what I could do for them.
The most difficult story that I've ever been involved in breaking on any of my shows was 'The Constant' episode of 'Lost,' which was when Desmond was consciousness-traveling.
I'd like to be able to travel anywhere in an instant.
If a transporter could send me from the bed with the dogs watching crappy TV to the stage five minutes before I go on, then immediately back to bed, I would love it.
Teleportation would be the best because I live on airplanes. It would be super handy to be able to teleport around.
I used to always say teleportation for those times when you want to skip the commute, the traffic, the wait. Now, however, I think I'd really love the power to just heal people. Heal sickness, sadness, and pain. It's really all the world needs.
The ship's transporters - which let the crew 'beam' from place to place - really came out of a production need. I realized with this huge spaceship, I would blow the whole budget of the show just in landing the thing on a planet.
Wandering around the web is like living in a world in which every doorway is actually one of those science fiction devices which deposit you in a completely different part of the world when you walk through them. In fact, it isn't like it, it is it.
If I could have a special power in real life I'd love to fly.
I wish I could teleport and cut out the travelling in between gigs. I want the luxury of the shows without the painful bits stuck on a tour bus.
Did Belikov bend the rules of time and space to get here so fast? He can do that, right?
I think there's a part of us that fantasizes about having some sort of super power. If I could have one, it would definitely be teleportation!
I've always been a big fan of time travel, and I'm very into the notion that some day we'll be able to do it. Beam me up!
It win be a device that will permit communication without any time interval between two points in space. The device will not transmit messages, of course; simultaneity is identity. But to our perceptions, that simultaneity will function as a transmission, a sending. So we will be able to use it to talk between worlds, without the long waiting for the message to go and the reply to return that electromagnetic impulses require. It is really a very simple matter. Like a kind of telephone.
In the world of tomorrow, the new man will 'think' the place he wants to go, then his mind will take him there.
I'm waiting for them to come up with a 'Star Trek' thing so they can beam me from my house to the gigs and back.
A teleporter would be nice. There are lots of places I want to go, but getting there is a pain.
Time travel and teleportation will have to wait. It may take centuries to master these technology.
Are you all right?" "Oh my god! I phased!" "Are you all right?" "Are you?" "It was strange." "I can't believe I phased just then! That's never...it was totally your fault." "I like to think so, yes." "Tee hee.
The fastest way to travel is to be there already.
It's 2003. Why can't I teleport?
If I had a super power, I'd want to be able to fly just so I could float around my apartment. Or I'd really like telekinesis because then you'd be able to slam the door on somebody.
