    Thanks for watching! Many of you bringing up the problem with relativity -- what is someone like Nightcrawler teleporting relative to? The Earth, the Sun, the Solar System? What happens to his velocity? This is my point. NONE of this is ever explained, and if we try, a number of problems present themselves. I don't like to just say "the super power takes care of it" because then what can we learn? See you in Footnotes! *And don't worry, I am working on episodes about super power you DO want* --KH

      This has always been my biggest problem with time travel too. Not sure if anyone has discussed this on here before as I'm new to the channel (it's great by the way) and this is my first comment on here but without the ability to teleport, time travel is effectively useless. If you did the classic back to future time jump going from 1985 back to 1955, over those 30 years the sun will have moved around the galaxy roughly 3.6x10^12 meters. If you went back in time without also teleporting through space you would end up an awful long way from where you wanted to be. Have you done an episode on time travel? If not, I think you should.

      @Because Science
      What if that teleportation is similar to shooting moving target where you don't shoot where it is but where it will be? And when entering dimension you have your velocity and exiting you keep same velocity (dimension doesn't slow you down)?
      P.S. If dimension would slow superhero down that would also put huge G forces to stop instantly if you go with Earth's speed. So if dimension do slow you down it shouldn't be instant stop but incremental. In time it takes to disappear and reaper you shouldn't lose that much of speed relevantly.

    It's actually explained in the comics that nightcrawler has a sixth sense in addition to his teleportation he has control over how fast he reappears as well as the momentum when he enters back into our world and the orientation that he's facing. It's why he can teleport onto moving objects. His speed automatically matches the plane of existence he goes to.

    Also, when you "reappear" at your destination after a teleport, and assuming you are somewhere with an atmosphere, you could be arriving into a location that has atoms (the air). Either you would be atomically split (since your atoms and the air atoms would be "in the same place), or you would instantly displace those air atoms causing a rush of air around your reappearance.

      This aspect is kind of part of 1 of the flaws of teleportation that hasn't been discussed in this video that is also kind of important. The mechanics of the transportee. Do the cells transport through the alternate dimension theory. Or the whole body.
      If the whole body it wouldn't successfully enter if there's a wall, because it would be bumped out of the way due to the inability to displace the solid mass, or if it does displace the solid mass would the wall subsequently teleport a distance equal to your teleportation if it was instant in the opposite direction.
      Or if it's your cells/particles how does the teleportee dissolve and resubstantiate, and how painfull or how woul that effect you.
      Effect: Would the teleportation process reset the polarity of energy stored, and would that as a result make you not have a mind afterwards.
      Basically having to relearn everything the way a kid would since you don't know how to do any actions, like crying like a baby is already a step up from that.
      Pain: I mean a punch impacts your atoms and cells. If you're whole body's cell's seperated that would be something your body wouldn't even be able to signal a warning of to you in regards to pain since pain is a signal that has to be transported in the first place. But I could imagine during reassembly that your body would truly be trying to signal it's disappreciation of what that was.

    As for portal teleportation, all the problems (brought up in the video, there are tons of undiscussed ones) would be solved. Portals are relative to the surface they are put on. Therefore, if put on the ground then the portal has the velocities of that ground. Then, when you go through the portal, the velocities of the portal get added to yours, therefore you wouldn't really be in any immediate danger.

Unless souls exist and this teleportation device can some how move your soul into the new body, but I think teleportation would be very irrelevant if we could master our own souls with technology. Like who would care about teleporting if you if you didn't even need a body in the first place. I would never trust any teleportation honestly, for me its portals or a car.

      Dammit Jim, traversable wormholes aren't teleportation!
      Well okay, by the Sci-Fi definition of teleportation, projecting a wormhole mouth to a desired place and pushing your mass-energy through it would be theoretically viable. You can inflate a wormhole mouth from the far end. The trick is propelling the wormhole mouth... especially making it come to a stop. Because otherwise you come out of that mouth with the velocity of the mouth, which can end badly.
      Though it would sure look cool, projecting a tiny wormhole mouth with a bright plasma jet coming out one end, propelling it to its destination...

    • @DerpingtonJr

      That makes me wonder if an Einstein-Rosen Bridge would theoretically be able to have its entrances/exits move relative to each other. The theoretical use-case for this would allow for the ends of the bridge to be located at fixed points on two different planets' surfaces so you would have to worry about the planets moving relative to each other.
      of course, the answer to all these hypotheticals is almost always, "further research is required"™

      Its not teleportation, its quantum tunnelling and its not just a thing in a lab, it happens naturally all the time even inside you. Quantum particles only have a probability of being in a location until they interact with something, then they colllpse into a position. If the particle is high energy enough or the barrier thin enough then there is a significantly non zero chance that a particle could be on the other side of the wall when observed.

    Update to my previous. If Nightcrawler moves through another dimension, then we can imagine how this works with a two-dimensional metaphor.
    Consider a two dimensional creature living on a tabletop, unable to see the third dimension. If I pick it up, move it, and set it down, then, from a two dimensional perspective, it will seem to have teleported. But we know that isn't what happened because we can see the third dimension. If the table is moving or similar, that isn't a problem. That two-dimensional world is just a slice of the three-dimensional reality. Everything is connected.
    Perhaps Nightcrawler lives in a three-dimensional slice of a four-dimensional universe. In that case, his power could make a fourth-dimensional step, move him the required distance, then take another fourth-dimensional step to set him back into his own reality. Because all of reality is connected, he doesn't need to worry about any changes in momentum or the movement of the Earth. All of the forces upon him are preserved because he never left reality; he just moved through it in an unconventional way.

    Kyle, you are also forgetting how fast the sun is travelling around Sagittarius A, (around 230,000 m/s) or how fast the Milky Way Galaxy is travelling in our local super cluster (I don't know, but fast). Those speeds dwarf your original calculations by several orders of magnitude. I think the crux of your entire argument (and it's Achilles Heel) is the concept of absolute or relative position. Effectively there's no particularly poignant point that can be attributed as the origin point in our universe without some sort of perfectly valid and legitimate argument as to why it shouldn't be. Ergo, ALL positions in space are actually relative positions. So however many metres away you are travelling, if you were using the centre of the earth as the fixed point that your teleportations are relative to, then ALL the math you just said after the rotational differential is utterly meaningless, as the position you're moving to or from is relative not to some arbitrary fixed origin, and rather is relative to the large massive body you want to remain on. If this is the case, then nightcrawlers teleportation limit of a few miles makes sense and can be considered "safe" WITHOUT some kind of quantuum supercomputer doing the calculations for him. Although your statement about the air-replacing is completely valid, lol.

      Yes, the whole episode was about frames of reference. I was expecting to hear some additional reasons not to want the power.
      With the example of Portal's portals, the entry and exit points are fixed relative to the moving reference frame of Earth's surface and momentum is preserved relative to those points. Teleportation, of the type described, should be able to work the same way, almost regardless of the conditions of the means of travel (other dimensions) between those points. It's also possible for the alternate dimension to be linked somehow to the movement of the Earth.
      Just like the perception of a 3D object in 2D space, if you pick up a chess piece (the surface of the board is what's visible) the circle representing its mass would disappear when picked up and reappear when set back down. It can be moved faster this way than by sliding it and can avoid obstacles not possible while sliding but it still shares the same reference frame for momentum and everything else.

    My favorite examples of Teleportation in fiction are the ones shown in the "A Certain" Franchise (made up of the series "A Certain Magical Index", "A Certain Scientific Railgun" and "A Certain Scientific Accelerator"). In this franchise, Teleportation exists in 5 different variants, all of which have their own advantages and disadvantages.
    The most commonly seen type is just called "Teleportation", as used by the character Shirai Kuroko. She can teleport up to 81.5 meters at a time, and in order to teleport at all, she has to calculate her original coordinates and the destination coordinates in 11 dimensions, and if she tries to teleport further than 50 meters I think it is, her accuracy drops from a few millimeters to 1.5 meters, which could lead to her teleporting into a wall, or out in front of a train, depending on where she uses it. She can also teleport any object she touches, up to a maximum weight of 138 kilograms, regardless of size, and again, the closer to the limit, the lower the accuracy.
    The second-most commonly seen type is called "Move Point", and is used by another character, Musujima Awami, who can teleport objects without having to touch them, up to a maximum range of just over 1 kilometer, with a weight limit of around 4 metric tons. Enough to drop a building on her enemies. Naturally, this sounds like a more powerful ability, but unlike Teleportation, Move Point doesn't cause matter in the destination coordinates to be displaced when an object is teleported, so teleporting into a wall could cause serious injury. In fact, this is explained early on as the reason why Musujima doesn't teleport herself around unless she has no other choice at all, because she's already been close to dying after teleporting into a wall.
    The third type is called "Asportation", and is considered a stronger version of Teleportation and Move Point, as it has the accuracy and speed of Teleportation, but the range of Move Point, except the limits are increased since it's a Level 5 ability, where the other are Level 4. It is only ever seen used by a dead person, whose powers have been amplified to make it Level 5, even though originally they were Level 3 and much weaker than "Teleportation".
    Also, all these types of teleportation are mentally taxing, leading to a limit to how many times in a row a teleporter can use their ability. And they require one to focus on nothing but the calculations, meaning that in most cases, they're 100% worthless in battle, unlike Nightcrawler's which doesn't seem to have any limits at all...

Possibly the molecules could be crammed together, still killing you, however I doubt it. A Star Trek transporter, for example, could beam you into solid rock because it separates your molecules to move you from one space to another. But a dimensional form of teleportation could not.

If anything is in the space they teleport to it gets destroyed or pushed out of the way because cannot occupy the same space. Also this guy is making assumptions on things that aren't proven anyways.

      It would be impossible if your including the ability to change into something a different size than yourself. Because you have the whole “where did the extra mass come from or go?”problem.
      However if someone somehow had the conscious ability to manipulate their DNA to change their appearance into anything that’s the same mass as they are then it could work.

    To be fair, we don't know what would happen if two separate bits of matter were brute forced into sharing the same space. In an example like Miro from My Hero Academia - When his Phasing ability is turned off if he is stuck in something like a wall or the ground he gets shot out of it much like a glitchy video game character.
    In other cases characters like the Reverse Flash have been able to basically scramble someone's brains by phasing into their head and then turning it off.

    5:30 a way to get around that, assuming you can teleport into the same relative position on the earth, you can repeatedly teleport into the atmosphere until your relative velocity is minimized by air friction thus safely teleporting...
    Except for the vacuum created by your transport.

    One little issue I have with this argument. It seems to be predicated on any point in space having some sort of absolute location. It seems to echo the old ether theory. The Earth is spinning, the Earth is orbiting, the sun is orbiting the galactic core, the galaxy is moving even faster through the universe. But there is no universal space coordinate system. That implies there is some sort of origin point that we can measure everything from. Some fixed center of the universe. As near as we can tell no such point exists. Therefore there's no way to measure "absolute velocity". As Einstein proved, everything is relative.

    • @TerryProthero
      @TerryProthero Před 5 lety +51

      This is a common mistake. I remember Shad from Shadiversity talking about time travel and suggesting that you would end up somewhere in space if you didn't also space travel. Kyle, I think, said something similar. I'm fairly certain that the only origin point that exists would be a reference point that is stationary relative to you. So if I marked an X on my living room floor and stood on it, it could be said that I am not moving in space. If I disappeared and reappeared a day later on that same X then it could be said that I moved in time but not space. No other coordinate system even makes sense. All locations in space need to be stated relative to some reference point. As you say, there is no absolute coordinate system. In fact, the universe doesn't even have a center. All points in space are the center of the universe. Everything is expanding in all directions.

      The only concern is what your powers regard as a reference point. Mutant powers like night crawler where all you do is think would likely keep earth as a reference (and no reason to say the brimstone universe doesn't have an earth sized planet in it right? I could be wrong but I didn't think we had much detail about it).
      I would assume Tech would more likely not have a frame of reference and might need calculations but not sure. Haven't done any physics since 1st year University.

      The books by Steven Gould explore a lot of these ideas. In a later book, one of the "Jumpers" realizes that if she can instinctively match her velocity to the velocity of the Earth when she teleports, then she can also jump in place but change her velocity (or jump anywhere with any velocity), effectively giving her the ability to fly. She goes on to create her own space station. Read the books!

  • @gaberyan6283
    @gaberyan6283 Před rokem

    Most interperations of teleportation revolve around fixed points or things within your vision, IE they either have to be able to see it, which removes the first few problems or to a location you know the exact cordinates at and have effectively set a teleporation ancor of sorts that does the solves the velocity issue by having you exist said ancor with the same velocity you left with, instantaniously.
    Marvel's form of teleporation is pretty specific interperation of teleportation, which would likely be unusuable. The real danger when considering more typical teleportation methods is having the fixed point be obstructed by something, jumper covered this nicely.

  • @santiagovidal4497
    @santiagovidal4497 Před 4 měsíci

    Portal’s portals are really the best way to do teleportation. If you put a portal at the north pole and another at the equator, the portal at the equator is unmoving relative to its surroundings, and so entering the portal at the north pole immediately means you are moving at the speed of the portal at the equator.
    The same way that running into a portal conserves your velocity on the exit, running through a portal whose other end is moving will “accelerate” you and vice versa, in reference to the unmoving frame around the portal

    I think the more effective and useful version of teleportation would be the manipulation of the probability of Quantum Tunneling. If you had this power (Dr. Manhattan I think) you could simply raise the probability that all the particles in your body quantum tunneled to wherever you wanted to go.
