[Research] Interesting Objects - Museum: Teleportation Device (4CTA1214)

Image
How awesome would it be to teleport to different places in the world, with no effort required? In May 2014, an article was published by Mark Prigg, reporting that scientists had managed to send three atoms three meters with 100% accuracy - making teleportation possible for humans in the future. In films portals are used to matter from one place to another and are made out of mystical energy. In other movies actual devices are used to transport matter however these look more like capsules and are much more mechanical. Bibliography & References Mail Online. (2017).

There are many futuristic objects used in the Star Wars movies that could potential be manufactured in the future. 1. Han Solo's DL - 44 Blaster: Highly reliable, accurate and easily modifiable, looks very futuristic in design and when shooting. The gun itself has a vibrator system built into the hand grip which tells the user that the gun only has five remaining shots. It also the ability to charge a bolt twice as powerful into a capacitor without damaging the sidearm. 2. LightSaber: Works by generating a beam of light using a kybercrystal that is hot (530 degrees) enough to cut through most materials - commonly used by Jedi. Bibliography & References Castro, A.
