ture and then transmitted that information a distance of 1 metre (3.28
feet). In another recent teleportation experiment, Ping Koy Lam of the
Australian National University (ANU) and other researchers transmit-
ted a laser ray a short distance. 198
Indeed, according to a CNN report on 17 July 2002, a group of
physicists from the National Australian University in Canberra split a
laser ray and "transmitted" it several metres. Ping Koy Lam, the team's
head, stated that they had not yet succeeded in transmitting matter in

its atomic state, but that such a thing was not impossible and may
become a reality in the future.
According to a study published in the science journal Nature,
Eugene Polzik of Denmark's University of Aarhus, and his colleagues
performed successful experiments on a large number of atoms, using
laser rays and quantum physics. 199 In his analyses of teleportation's
potential, published in the journal Scientific American, Australian physi-
cist Anton Zeilinger states that far more complex systems could be tele-
ported without violating the laws of physics. 200
As the Qur'an reveals in "We will show them Our signs on the
horizon and within themselves until it is clear to them that it is the
truth" (Qur'an, 41:53), these scientific advances may represent a part of
the technologies indicated in the Qur'an, all of which reveal its miracu-
lous aspects.
