Make sure there’s no fly in the teleporter
Physicists say they have “teleported” quantum information farther than ever before.
This kind of teleportation isn’t quite what Scotty was “beaming up” on television’s Star Trek, but it does represent a kind of magic of its own. While Star Trek’s teleporters transport people from place to place instantaneously, quantum teleportation sends information.
A team of scientists from Austria, Canada and Germany say they beamed the quantum state of a particle of light from one island to another 89 miles (143 kilometers) away.

May I suggest a foreigner member like Maggie Chan? I nominate one of our earliest imports: Cynthia Luster.
