A Nobel prizewinner is reporting that DNA can be generated from its teleported "quantum imprint"
A STORM of scepticism has greeted experimental results emerging from the lab of a Nobel laureate which, if confirmed, would shake the foundations of several fields of science. "If the results are correct," says theoretical chemist Jeff Reimers of the University of Sydney, Australia, "these would be the most significant experiments performed in the past 90 years, demanding re-evaluation of the whole conceptual framework of modern chemistry."
Luc Montagnier, who shared the Nobel prize for medicine in 2008 for his part in establishing that HIV causes AIDS, says he has evidence that DNA can send spooky electromagnetic imprints of itself into distant cells and fluids. If that wasn't heretical enough, he also suggests that enzymes can mistake the ghostly imprints for real DNA, and faithfully copy them to produce the real thing. In effect this would amount to a kind of quantum teleportation of the DNA.

First, the M5 was based on Multitronics, Daystrom's succesor to the older Duotronic architecture.
Second, Daystrom is in the Federation Nut House on Fruitcake 7 crafting baskets from the fibers of the T'goofy plant native to Weaver Prime.
Lol! I doubt there’s any relation. :)
OK, call me Captain Dunsel.
Reverend Dr. J. Polkinghorne:
“Professor Schäfer gives a clear and fascinating account of why the ideas of modern physics lead him to a transcendent view of the nature of reality. Science is the inspiration of a personal belief that takes the reader beyond science itself.”
William McDonald Wallace, Chief Economist (ret), Boeing Airplane Company, and author of “Postmodern Management”.
“Focusing on the phenomena of the quantum world as signs of a transcendent reality, Schäfer’s book goes a long way to breaking down the traditional barriers between science and the spiritual quest. I think it will be very difficult to read this book and remain committed to atheistic materialism. Among other recent, similar attempts, this is the most compelling and thorough one.”
Prof. Quentin Smith, Department of Philosophy, Western Michigan University, Kalamazoo, MI;
Author (with W. L. Craig) of “Theism, Atheism, and Big Bang Cosmology”, Clarendon Press, Oxford 1993:
“Schäfer’s book is an integrative approach to Modern Science and Religion that aims to show how some traditional religious and philosophical notions can be understood or redefined in terms of modern science. The scientific explanations are reliable and the scientific interpretations of religious ideas are interesting and should be taken seriously and respectfully by even the most sober-minded adherents of the scientific world-view. Rather than science being opposed or subordinated to religion, religious views are refashioned in terms of currently accepted scientific theories. Most of the arguments of the book are based on conclusions drawn from the phenomena of quantum reality and it is one of the clearest introductory explanations of quantum mechanics on the market. Schäfer’s book is written in a lively and accessible style that will appeal to the general reader. I really enjoyed reading this book.”

Friend of yours? Relative maybe?
Lol! That was probably the dopiest Star Trek episode ever. But funny as sh*t, although it likely wasn’t meant to be funny.
Come to think of it, I can't think of a single decent episode for Trek's third season. But most of them are unintentionally funny. "I am Kuuuuroooock!!!!"
You don't recognize you own mother's prom photo?
I liked Lost In Space much better. Plenty of intentional humor there between Dr Smith and the Robot.
So the gentleman is from Mars, is he?
Oh goodie! A saturday night filler.
I’d say it would be more appropriate for those looong visits to the bathroom. Incredible stuff though, if you’re into the connections between quantum physics and microbiology. And who isn’t! :)
This is a listen you might enjoy ... the two links at the end of the post to which I’m pinging.
“Hey Bubba was mom a blond?”
“Sheldrake’s-Morphogenetic-field-proof? ping.”
Ruperts the boy. :)
NASA funded experiment?
I waited for 60 minutes for that damned episode to start doing something interesting. And it never did.
And that's why I hate Shakespeare.
