Invisibility: A Possibility for US Military?

12 08 2008

Well, they say that scientists at the University of California  ( Led by Xiang Zhang) are coming closer to developing an invisibilty cloak- rendering the wearer invisible.

They say that Scientists have been able to previously cloak very thin 2D objects, but this is the closest they’ve come do cloaking a 3D object. Apparently it involves lighting… Pretty amazing stuff, huh? I thought that was only in Harry Potter…

At any rate, this could provide a significant advantage to the US military, but one wouldn’t want to get the cloaks in the hands of terrorist organizations- that could end up very bad.
