Speed of Light
I've been following the work of this wonan for years.
"Lene Vestergaard Hau can stop a pulse of light in midflight, start it up again at 0.13 miles per hour, and then make it appear in a completely different location."
So cool. More here "Harvard Physicist Plays Magician With the Speed of Light".
I still remember being taught that you couldn't do this. So much for skool larnin.
Now, doesn't most of our electonric stuff travel on light in glass fibre? Wonder what will happen there.
