Does my idea of FTL make any sense?
In my universe, there exist molecular level machines that can behave as a single entity. The humans use them for many purposes, including faster than light travel.
The concept is as it follows: The FTL computer creates a map of the ship containing every atom that composes the volume of the ship and everything inside it. Then, it uses something like quantum teleportation to move the atoms to another position rebuilding the ship a click away. A click means the area exactly in front of the ship meaning that the new ship will be built starting from the front of the old one. The FTL computer does this a million times a second giving a speed of one million times the length of the ship.
