Balance of Terror could be for realsies



Some scientists who are way smarter than all of us put together are about to make it possible for you guys to perform your nightly peeping Tom runs and Val-U-Rite smash and grabs a lot more stealthily.

1 I already know guys who can slip through key holes and "turn invisible" without anything so fancy as a PREDATOR cloak. Yes, I've seen those silly photos of the "optical camouflage" raincoat, which is nothing more than the front-projection technique used in special effects cinematography and Pepper's Ghost. Dynamic camo, which would work like a TV screen, has numerous technical obstacles to overcome, like horizon and parallax effects, to name two. Any other invisibility technique would run into the same problems HG Wells described, such as moisture and dirt in the air. Being completely undetectable across the full spectrum is easy -- just don't be there, like the hyperlink in this blog. In fact, a cloaking device in space would be the most difficult of all: http://www.projectrho.com/rocket/rocket3w.html

2 The journal SCIENCE published a one-page article this week. If you wish to look up other sources on the subject, Google "transformation optics." (Other terms like "invisibility cloak" will get you nothing but the silly stuff.) Still, any estimates of having macro invisibility cloaks within 10 years are incredibly optimistic. I'll put that right next to the moonbases (plural) by 1980.
