It then went on to say that you had to more or less move matter or reconstruct the fabric of space in order to do it. Then it talked about scientists who were working on it, and had actually developed a way to do it but said it was too risky to actually try, but said that a more advanced species with thousands of years technology on us would probably have mastered it by now. Sounds crazy, but I am just the middleman between the Discovery Channel and GFY for this particular topic.
