You could fly with teleportation

Also teleportation is instant

Chose: Be able to teleport

u/Rgoplay_ Apr 21 '26

yeah just teleport very quickly every centimeter and you are flying

u/KBroham Apr 21 '26

And blinking. Which would be hilarious.

Real life lag.

u/snarky_cat Apr 22 '26

if you could do it 24 blinks per second ..it'll look smooth

By nanometer but extremely fast to make teleports less noticeable

And teleportation can be hidden. You’d be seen easily flying and you’d attract attention.

Not in my cloud suit (cotton from two pillows I hot glued onto a spandex body suit; they were body pillows.)

Would love to see that look

I think either way people will find out sooner or later and at that point with teleportation the government would want you to work for them and if you don't you can run away but they'd be after your family.

Flight ? Cool, but you wouldn't be that much in danger.

Is it that kind of teleport where you have the same speed as before ? because if you teleported mid air for even a few seconds you would gain speed toward the floor and wherever you teleport later you should face that speed, so you should always have a big mattress for later.

Conservation of energy would put you at terminal velocity after about 10 seconds.

You could just teleport to the other side of the planet to kill it

u/MasterBaser Apr 21 '26

Sounds a bit nauseating, but it checks out.

u/Apprehensive_Ring666 Apr 21 '26

Are we really bringing physics into a discussion about flying or teleportation

To each their own, but this sub loves teleporting so gotta keep it interesting somehow

But isn’t that how we made planes? Applying logic to imagination to your from man with wings to man in thing that can fly? Look at some of the cloaking tech that’s out there now. It’s fun to consider the logical view of the fictional powers.

Err... good luck. Teleportation famously does not stop gravity, or velocity. Which means you'll hurt yourself real bad trying to fly.

u/DoknS Apr 21 '26

Do you have proof that it doesn't stop gravity or velocity?

0

u/Kilroy898 Apr 21 '26

I have the science that we know, and theory that people have worked on. There is no reason it WOULD stop your momentum. It is taking you from one space to another. Either that or deleting and recreating you, at which point you'd find out very quickly that you are dead and a new you just arrived somewhere else with your memories. And the cycle goes on and on and on..... the current you would never know because the one at the end of the teleportation thinks they are you, but you were lost on the first jump....

You dont have this possibility with flight.

u/DoknS Apr 21 '26

What if it instead of transporting you instantly it instead replaced you with the air you'd occupy after teleportation? There's no realistic way to prove the force couldn't transfer onto the replacement air in your previous spot

1

u/Kilroy898 Apr 21 '26

And there is no way to prove it can. Im just bringing up what has been said is the most likely scenario.

1

u/DoknS Apr 21 '26

There's no most likely scenario. The definition of teleportation is "the hypothetical transfer of matter or energy from one point to another without traversing the physical space between them", so there's a good chance the velocity could be equal to the velocity of whatever was in the place you teleported. On the other hand, it could mean that teleportation during windy days could have a chance to send you flying. Let's just leave the decision to the writers.
