A powerful holographic camera has been developed by scientists, and it is able to see though almost everything, including tails, fog, and even human flesh. The device, built by researcher at Northwestern University in Evanston, Illinois, uses a technique called ‘synthetic wavelength holography’. It works by indirectly scattering light on hidden objects, which then scattered again and travels back to …

A bizarre quantum effect that was predicted decades ago has finally been demonstrated – if you make a cloud of gas cold and dense enough, you can make it invisible. Scientists at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) used lasers to squeeze and cool Lithium Gas to density and Temperatures Low enough that it scatter less light. If they can …
