Teleportation as a method of transportation has been described in numerous films and books. Research on teleportation dates back to the early 20th century. However, to date, this phenomenon has not been mastered, either through scientific approaches or by utilizing parascience for broader practical purposes. The fundamental problem with any attempt to utilize teleportation is the lack of a technological foundation, but above all, the lack of knowledge that could allow the use of devices designed for this form of transportation, perhaps even utilizing contemporary materials and technologies. Specific knowledge is essential for approaching such issues. Approaches utilizing dematerialization and materialization are often portrayed as a process, aided by computers with fantastic computing power, of destroying matter at one point and regenerating it at another. The problem, however, is that transmitting information about the configuration of matter from one point to another cannot, in the common sense, bypass the principles of relativity. The speed of information transmission is finite, regardless of the transmission method, and is at most equal to the speed of light. The technological dissonance is clearly visible here, and science has so far been unable to resolve this problem. The phenomenon of quantum entanglement, which could become the basis for teleportation techniques, has been studied to some extent, but it still doesn't function as desired. A path to simple transport through the destruction of matter appears to be a method that seriously interferes with the very principle of energy conservation. Destroying matter by converting it into energy involves the generation of enormous amounts of heat and other electromagnetic energy, and it would be difficult to dissipate such a large amount of energy into the environment. Therefore, it seems that such actions require further consideration. Annihilation, or the conversion of mass into electromagnetic energy, cannot occur spontaneously in a given medium; an equivalent amount of antimatter is required to convert twice as much mass into energy. Therefore, one should ask whether there is a form of teleportation that doesn't involve high-energy processes and that could be integrated with currently existing technological conditions. It must be acknowledged that currently, science, beyond the Standard Model, quantum physics, quantum electrodynamics, and other fields that constitute commonly available knowledge, lacks a theoretical foundation that could be used to describe teleportation methods. General knowledge of matter remains mediocre, and practical knowledge that would enable the transformation of matter and alter its physical properties is particularly limited. These issues are not considered in terms of scientific standards, and knowledge of relativity and quantum mechanics cannot provide the required theoretical, and therefore practical, foundations. While teleportation of the quantum state of single photons is already possible, these are massless particles. Therefore, when it comes to teleporting mass or matter, there is no clearly defined scientific foundation, let alone any technology. This is an intellectually demanding matter, especially since there is a plethora of underdeveloped theories attempting to provide us with an understanding of the workings of our universe and, possibly, the multiverse, such as the membrane universe, string theory, m-theory, etc. It begs the question: at this stage, we are still quite helpless when it comes to the physics of the fundamental structure of matter (which may go beyond the standard model), advanced quantum physics, and especially the connection of these fields with general knowledge of the workings of the cosmos, which includes an understanding of gravity, space, and time. To think about safe teleportation, practical knowledge is necessary, transcending the current scientific and technological realities.
