Transporter Death in other Sci-Fi

[Stark]

The first explodey episode was made in 1978/79.

[Patrick Degan]

Didn't Moloch show that you could use the teleport tech as a replicator? Or was it unrelated and I'm imagining things?

Since I think the B7 teleporters explicitly used 'reconstruction' that's transporter death too. So they killed Servalan after all.

The duplicator used in "Moloch" was based on a slightly different mechanism. No explanation as to how either the Liberator's or Scorpio's teleportation systems was ever given.

I thought Blake and Avon had a discussion about it early on, and the early teleport countermeasure suggested that they were reassembling them. I'll have to break out my early episodes

[Lord Zentei]

On two occasions, persons were deliberately teleported into open space, which somehow caused them to explode.

I think that may have to do with a brainbug from the era that people exploded in low pressure environments. This may have been spawned by the fact that deep sea fish brought to the surface will explode (though obviously quite not so dramatically as people exploded in these sci fi stories).

Since I think the B7 teleporters explicitly used 'reconstruction' that's transporter death too. So they killed Servalan after all.

And got themselves killed more than once.

Indeed, i cant think of any form of teleportation besides ST which is known to be a literal "kill you/clone you" method.

Actually, I've encountered that several times in science fiction, although it's been long enough that I can't recall specific books and series.
