Team develops "event cloak" concept

il be sure to buy this when they release this ons tore

I don't understand how scientist that resarch this, and stuff like invisibility cloaks, can sleep at night when it turns out their research will be used in so many ways that are wrong and will harm people. Guess they must be made of the same stuff as laywers, who can get a massmurderer free because of a tecnicality and claim they are just doing their job. Zam

Thats a bit of a stretch...

And ``invisibility cloaks''? Scientists can research these ethically because, unlike the lay public, the scientists understand there is no way these technologies will ever be used in the manner described in scientific jou...

So much unimaginable technology coming out these days.. It's hard to get a hold on, but exciting and refreshing considering the possibilies.

Okay, let's be real. The most incredulous and potentially perverse technology beyond the wildest dreams of the public has existed under the DAARPA cloak for decades,well, especially following the death of Tesla. and it is always reduced to only a tidbit in the ODD NEWS blogs.

Care to elaborate? (Also note that Tesla died in 1943, and ARPA (DARPA's predecessor) was not established until 1958.)

Care to elaborate? (Also note that Tesla died in 1943, and ARPA (DARPA's predecessor) was not established until 1958.) whats DARPA?

whats DARPA? The Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) is an agency of the United States Department of Defense responsible for the development of new technology for use by the military. DARPA has been responsible for funding the development of many technologies which have had a major effect on the world, including computer networking, as well as NLS, which was both the first hypertext system, and an important precursor to the contemporary ubiquitous graphical user interface. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DARPA
