Scientists are continuing to create things that make even the most tech or science illiterate to stop what they’re doing and pay attention.
Einstein’s theories of relativity suggest that gravity can cause time to slow down. Now scientists have demonstrated a way to stop time altogether—or at least, to give the appearance of time stopping by bending light to create a hole in time.
The new research builds on recent demonstrations of “invisibility cloaks” that can make objects seem to disappear by bending waves of visible light.
The idea is that, if light moves around an object instead of striking it, that light doesn’t get scattered and reflected back to an observer, making the object essentially invisible.
Even with the minuscule amount of time that was effected, it’s still something to take note of. If we can do this then possibly within 50 years or so the length of time can be expanded to several seconds.
