I believe that teleportation *could* be possible, although it would not be "teleportation" as much as "teleduplication". However, you just need to:
* A. Create a molecular constructor for the tele-"portation"
* B. Create a mechanism for "snap-shotting" the state of all atoms in a human body. (rougly a count of 7*10^27)
* C. use some way of transmitting massive amounts of information FTL.
C is certainly possible, but then known methods have problems. Causality is actually preserved in them so the infomation available when you decide to transmit your information is limited.
Have you ever read anything non-sci-fi about wormholes? It's not like people would fit in -- and especially not like they would come out in any kind of configuration like they went in.
Hyperdrive. It is just a word -- used by sci-fi to suggest FTL-travel. If you had some matter with negative mass, and some means to control/move it you could distort space-time to allow FTL-travel but I'm not holding my breath for either of those requirements.
As for positions "suddenly changing" -- what are you talking about? Bodies that can be said to have postitions don't "suddenly" move. There is not even any evidence of any quantum on time, so -- at least for now -- you should think of all movement as continuous.
