No replies yet? Wtf.

This is fantastic.

...was this your other account?

rEMEMBEr, what the eye can catch, is not as relevant, until the final output and it's usefulness and resourcefulness to the human. Generally, no one really looks around the room, to try and see through walls to make sure the bulb is working properly when we flick-on a light switch, just only that "the surrounding space is well lit for future navigation in the dark."

Einstein made fun of quantum physics. People laugh at string theory research. Tomorrow, people will make use of technology regardless of the past.

Capturing controlled-energy in a box is not the same as contained-energy. When micro-mechanics become small enough, through whatever or whichever forms of futuristic technology, it will open up doors to employing robotics to accelerate particle research. And this can be dangerous in its own way, that when artificial intelligence can bend light enough and report to humans - controlled-radiation at the quantum level will become an evolved naked-eye-invisible weapon.

We would be able to deploy nanite/nanomachine creatures to just modify the light of surrounding space and destroy anything in its path, all from the press of a button.

Of course this is old news, DARPA already knows about this, so does China.

John F. Kennedy:
"But neither can two great and powerful groups of nations take comfort from our present course—both sides overburdened by the cost of modern weapons, both rightly alarmed by the steady spread of the deadly atom, yet both racing to alter that uncertain balance of terror that stays the hand of mankind’s final war.

Let both sides, for the first time, formulate serious and precise proposals for the inspection and control of arms—and bring the absolute power to destroy other nations under the absolute control of all nations.

Let both sides seek to invoke the wonders of science instead of its terrors."

I didn't have anything to add. I was just fascinated by the article and was surprised no one else had been yet.

Why try to figure this stuff out when you can just leave it to God?

2500 years ago: Why is their light? God said let it be so.

Present: Things that are part particle part wave bounce off objects and we pick it up with ours eyes. Oh, and we can put it in a box!

lol I think previous innovation makes it easier to further innovation. Take molecular biology, for instance. We can accomplish so much more now in a given time period than we could ten years ago. Things like PCR have just ramped up our throughput.

i always thought einstein's dream was unification of the 4 fundamental forces.
