Magnet teleports into perfect vacuum-Now what?

Featured Replies

Does it start spinning?

If so, will it spin for all eternity if he gets to disoriented to teleport back out?

Or will the vacuum drain him of his magnetness, leaving him demagnetized with new identity issues, but curing his bipolar disorder?

(Personification tickles me, I apologize to anyone less amused.)

Seriously, what's going to happen to my friend?

Why would it? But as you have made up the teleportation device, it is up to you (as the science fiction author) to decide whether it will make things spin or not.

Vacuum has no effect on magnets.

Is Captain Kirk spinning when teleported onto a planet?

Being fair I think this is a strawman argument.  Captain Kirk isn't a magnet (except for the chicks) and the planets he beams to aren't usually vacuums...  lol.
