Air Force report calls for $7.5M to study psychic teleportation
In summary, the Air Force has recently funded a study on psychic teleportation, which has sparked controversy among scientists and critics due to its high cost of $7.5 million. Many are questioning the necessity of such a study and the allocation of funds, especially when compared to other areas of research such as stem cells and space exploration. The "Teleportation Physics Report" has been posted on the Federation of American Scientists website, causing a stir among those who are skeptical of military spending on projects like this.

Scientists are pretty thin skinned when it comes seeing projects like this funded.

Seriously. Why the heck do you need 7.5 million to do a study like this? I can't imagine why it would cost more than a few hundred thousand. That alone is a reason to give them a firm no.

Amazing. And how much money is being spent on real research into stuff like stem cells? I sure wish NASA was getting this money.
And how much money is being spent on real research into stuff like stem cells? I sure wish NASA was getting this money.What is psychic teleportation?
Psychic teleportation refers to the concept of moving objects or people from one location to another through the power of the mind, without the use of physical means of transportation.
Why does the Air Force want to study psychic teleportation?
The Air Force is interested in studying psychic teleportation because it could potentially have military applications, such as being able to quickly and discreetly transport personnel or supplies to different locations.
What does the $7.5 million budget cover for this study?
The $7.5 million budget will cover the costs of conducting research, hiring experts and consultants, and potentially conducting experiments to explore the feasibility and potential applications of psychic teleportation.
Is there any scientific evidence to support the possibility of psychic teleportation?
There is currently no scientific evidence to support the feasibility of psychic teleportation. However, the Air Force believes that further research and study may provide valuable insights and potentially lead to breakthroughs in this area.
How long will this study take and when can we expect to see results?
The timeline for this study is not yet known, as it will depend on the progress and findings of the research. Results may be published in the future, but it is important to note that this is a speculative and exploratory study, and there is no guarantee of concrete results or applications.
