Mathematicians in Support of Cloaking
N intersting article over at the BBC speaks about the idea of cloaking. To be more specific, a couple of scientists contend that it may be possible to hide one’s existence and presence. This notion relates to many science-fictioncal fantasies, so it sure arouses curiosity and fascinates, much like time travel.
The cloaking devices that are used to render spacecraft invisible in Star Trek might just work in reality, two mathematicians have claimed.
