#TheTelegraph: '#Invisibility #cloak' that could hide tanks and troops looks closer to #reality.
#Wikipedia: ❛❛ Developments in #scientific research show that #realworld cloaking #devices can obscure #objects from at least one #wavelength of #EM #emissions. ❜❜

Did you know that #invisibility cloaks are #real?
From the 2nd c's Cap of Hades to #Marvel 's Invisible Woman, magic that renders one #invisible is a common theme in #mythology & #scifi.
In 2006, #theoretical #physicist John Pendry figured out that light could be bent around an object so that it renders it invisible.
This led to many advancements in metamaterial science, known as 'metamaterial cloaking'.
I've enjoyed this talk by Pendry: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VO6IrynhjKs [start: 4:43min]
Invisibility shields -- optical cloaking devices -- now exist and you can order one. Wild.
