PalaceGuard,

OK. So with encoding, we can be looking at a minimum of 10^27 or so measurements in 3 seconds.

Now in the almost 30 years since the original supercomputer, the Cray-1, was set up at Los Alamos National Laboratory in 1976, computational speed has increased some 500,000 times.

Even if the rate of progress remains at this level, it will still be 150 years before the necessary computing power is available to be harnessed.

Sir, you’ll have to be fortunate to see teleporting in action!

Still it IS fun to speculate how it might be achieved.



Thank you!
