Scientists have achieved a world record in the strange world of quantum teleportation.

In a study that sounds like something out of Star Trek, researchers have managed to teleport packets of light over 60 miles (100km) of optical fiber.

The research could have implications for cryptography, which involves transmitting information securely, including communications between Earth and spacecraft.
