..there’s no intelligent life down here.

from Inhabitat: “a physicist at Tohoku University in Japan has figured out how to teleport energy from one point in the universe to another.

The energy teleportation technique is based upon research that shows it’s possible to teleport information from one location to another. According to MIT, “The process of teleportation involves making a measurement on each one [of] an entangled pair of particles. He points out that the measurement on the first particle injects quantum energy into the system. He then shows that by carefully choosing the measurement to do on the second particle, it is possible to extract the original energy.

Heady stuff, but essentially it means that you can inject energy at one point in the universe and extract it from somewhere else without changing the energy of the system as a whole.”

Sure would beat rush hour traffic….
