Teletran 3


 * ''Teletran 3 is a computer in G.I. Joe vs. the Transformers continuity.



Teletran 3 is a supercomputer at that forms the the hub of Cybertron's transport network. It is capable of opening precision wormholes to physically connect two points, or smaller 'pinpoint' wormholes through which data can flow. Teletran 3 performs routine functions autonomously, but requires operator assistance to deal with new tasks.

Teletran 3 is capable of opening wormholes beyond Cybertron planetary space (to earth for example) but Shockwave was either ignorant of this ability, or chose not to use it for fuel-efficiency purposes. During transport, Teletran 3 can filter a Transformer through a 'camouflage protocol,' reconfiguring their altmode to match the destination.

It is also capable of transporting objects through time- though this ability came as a surprise to all concerned, including Teletran 3. This method of time-travel is impractical for regular use because it has a significant chance of causing the Apocalypse.

Teletran 3 is sentient, possessing sufficient self-awareness to be embarrassed by the whole 'Apocalypse' thing, but it also appears indifferent to the Autobot/Decepticon conflict, serving whoever asks.

''Please note 'Teletran 3' is actually spelled that way, unlike the various 'Teletraans' littering other continuities.
