transporter room

Materialization bay area

A transporter room is a chamber aboard a starship in the *Star Trek* universe where crew members stand to be teleported—their bodies disassembled into energy patterns and reassembled at a destination.

The term has become shorthand in science fiction fandom for any teleportation facility: Meet me in the transporter room in five minutes.
