Just so long as Voldemort doesn't hear about it...

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Scientists have created two new types of materials that can bend light the wrong way, creating the first step toward an invisibility cloaking device.

One approach uses a type of fishnet of metal layers to reverse the direction of light, while another uses tiny silver wires, both at the nanoscale level.

Both are so-called metamaterials -- artificially engineered structures that have properties not seen in nature, such as negative refractive index.

So... when will the Pentagon order our military to use it for attacking Iran?

If you were told you owned the blue triangle

Would you rise in its defense?

In another experiment, Kiesler’s team asked 36 students to watch a film in which two triangles and a circle seem to have a skirmish. Half were told beforehand that they owned the smaller triangle. On average, this group rated the larger triangle as less “likeable” and most forcefully vilified it for being aggressive. Watch the video here.
