In the 1960s, while still in HS I wrote a short story (everything was still paper then and unfortunately no longer have a copy) about a guy who uses a quantum teleportation service to take a holiday on the planet of a nearby star. Rather than moving his body the process only copied his mind into a synth at the destination. His body on earth was placed in stasis. After his holiday his updated mind was copied back to his Earth body. On Tue, Jun 30, 2020, 5:47 AM jim bell <jdb10987@yahoo.com> wrote:

"Teleportation" that can only copy a person, not merely move him, would greatly complicate episodes of Star Trek.
