New material "perfectly absorbs light," converting it to heat:
While research into light refracting metamaterials has produced a few neat, if very small toys, some groups, like the British Royal Navy, are taking cloaking devices quite seriously. Mostly, this type of thing works on negative refraction indexes, the materials merely bend light, visible or otherwise, around themselves. While this would be incredibly useful for Motoko Kusanagi or Klingon Birds of Prey, cloaking materials don't have a lot of use in generic, not blowing up the bad guys, applications.


I'ts like a Hollywood movie! I had to watch it twice to see what they are seeing...

1. BS! I've seen Kirk and Spock do that!
Remember when they were being beamed up and they got stuck between here and there? That was like what......the sixties?

And we're just now getting it? Damn, Big Pharma must have the patent on that one.

2. There's water or something on the lens of the camera.
That's why, when the other dudes pass through the field of view in the other direction, at the same spot, they seem so distorted.

5. This is big...
Obama could send troops to Libya, and we'd never know, because they'd be invisible. ;)
