Did Nikola Tesla invent teleportation?

Or are there any inventions we haven't heard of in the mainstream which seem to be ahead of their time?

    I don't think so, or if he did, he kept it secret.

    Sadly, no. He was a great physicist and certainly ahead of his time as you suggest, but while...

    He invented radio and made "green" light bulbs, and "proofed out" alternating current, and pushed forward the boundaries of knowledge of resonance, teleportation does not exist (beyond the teleportation of a single photon in the lab), and so he (nor anyone else for that matter) did not invent or discover it.

    You are thinking of that "magic" movie that came out a few years ago with David Bowie as Tesla. Wonderful concept, but not reality.
