If parapsychologists, physical researchers, and physicists are only now beginning to apply serious scientific techniques to the study of teleportation on this planet, isn't it completely feasible that a culture, several million years ahead of ours, has long since learned to employ "mind over matter"? Certainly this theory would require a re-ordering of the universe as it is now known, but has not the "impossible" presence of the saucers already done that? 24.
