How to Be Invisible

TIME.com: Eye on Science - Science Blog Archives - How to Be Invisible

Seriously? What? Like, we're in technological territory that defies the imagination. Someone has actually worked out the theory for an invisibility cloak! Of course, actual invisibility is a little ways away, but still... the fact that it's theoretcially possible? Actually a little disappointing.

You see, at this rate there's going to be nothing left to the imagination! If these people keep inventing, we'll have no fantasies left!

Not really. The human imagination is quite, um, imaginative - we'll find something to fill out fantasies with. I'm just happy to be blogging after so long, so excuse me. The article however is 100% real. I checked the date and it ain't April 1.

well, the cloak is actually more of a 'shield' in the article i'd ready (sorry, i didn't check your link), which bends light around itself, but it'll still be a while before your average 10-yr old gets his hands on an actual cloak and is able to run around Hogwarts' after hours.
