USAF Studies Teleportation

Posted by michael on from the deficits-don't-matter dept.

ArchAngel21x writes "Star Trek fans may be happy to hear that the Air Force has paid to study psychic teleportation. But scientists aren't so thrilled. The Air Force Research Lab's August 'Teleportation Physics Report', posted earlier this week on the Federation of American Scientists (FAS) Web site, struck a raw nerve with physicists and critics of wasteful military spending."

    Here's an extract from an excellent new book by Guardian journalist Jon Ronson. No further comment needed from me: read this and weep.

    The road to Abu Ghraib

    "In the wake of Vietnam, the US military were demoralised and prey to some fairly crazy ideas. They thought they could train 'super soldiers' with psychic powers. In this first extract from his revealing new book, Jon Ronson describes how their aspirations were perverted in the prisons of Iraq."

    I should declare my own bais here. I think the USA is finished; the only question is how much damage it will cause the rest of the world in it's death throes in the next few decades.

    Don't believe me? OK, just keep an eye on the US dollar vs Euro. The invisible hand is voting...
