TeleNet

TeleNets are machines that produce an artificial portal. They were invented by Gary and are used to transport objects over great distances.

Description
A TeleNet is composed of metal bent into the outline of a shape(be it a square, ring, octagon or any other shape) connected to a small box with a switch on it. The single switch is used to operate the machine, and can be turned either ON or OFF. Turning on the switch of one TeleNet automatically flips the switch of its twin to the same position.

The TeleNet is unique in its method of teleportation, which saves energy and does not produce as much caxalin as normal techniques. Turning on the switch activates a top-of-the-line Space Ripper, which punches a small hole through the spacetime surrounding the TeleNet, instead of creating a tunnel. This small hole is not extended unless an object enters the space inside it. The object inside the portal must then move forward. This causes the hole to "bud off" and move through spacetime as a bubble, directed by the Space Ripper and Procrastinators, until it reaches its destination. Since TeleNets do not use reinforced tunnels to facilitate teleportation, travel via TeleNet has a time lag of about 1-3 miliseconds.

TeleNets are manufactured and used in pairs. The portal produced by one TeleNet links to the other TeleNet, so that if you step through one TeleNet's portal, you would arrive out of the other TeleNet's portal. This mechanism is used to transport objects and people over great distances.

Trivia

 * TeleNets, unlike other forms of teleportation, do not produce biohazards as a byproduct of Coagulative Rapid Universe Distortion, making them eco-friendly.
 * As a pair of TeleNets are locked to only allow travel between themselves thanks to a 24,000 digit identification number, it is theoretically impossible to link one TeleNet with another separate TeleNet. However, extremely skilled hackers can crack these numbers and enable this kind of travel.
 * The reason the identification numbers were installed was because each TeleNet pair is tailor made to its purpose. For example, a TeleNet used to transfer mail would be much smaller than a standard transportation model. If those two TeleNets were ever linked up and a passenger entered via the transportation portal, it is theorised that the spacetime bubble they were travelling in would "pop", and the passenger would be turned into a mass of hypothetical particles. This is why TeleNet modification can be extremely dangerous.
 * TeleNets are the BoF standard for energy efficient, safe portals. A small office in the Department of Research is devoted to modding them in order to exploit their properties.
