Scientists Have Frozen Light

We got fucking hardlight before silksong imma go insane

Makes sense it only last 60 seconds. That’s how it always works on the games before they magically disappear and you gotta do the section over.

[TheBotNumberOne]

We got energy shields before GTA VI and Silksong

[Tibbles-hm]

No way we managed to slow the fastest thing in the universe to a solid before gta 6 😭🙏

Ecountering an Undertale save point in real life fills you with determination.

One step closer to getting those Halo Energy Swords.

Of all the sci fi stuff ive seen this year i didnt expect hardlight tech just yet honestly.

[DemonPig]

No way we’re getting hard light bridges irl before Portal 3

They did not freeze light they shot a beam through a pre existing Bose Einstein condensate and the light bounced around the substrate at light speed but because it had to make so many bounces to get through, it looked like it was standing still.

[nowlog]

scientists didn’t "freeze" light in the traditional sense but fired a beam through a pre-existing Bose-Einstein condensate (BEC), a state of matter near absolute zero where atoms behave as a single quantum entity. The light, still moving at its natural speed (299, 792 km/s), bounced repeatedly within the BEC’s dense, structured medium. These multiple reflections made it take longer to exit—up to 60 seconds—creating the appearance of being "frozen" or standing still, even though it wasn’t truly stopped.

Now we just need portals and a sinister robot

These people are the real heroes.. not our leaders..😢

This was discovered like 20 years ago when hard light manufacturing was first being theorized. We now have hard light manufacturing.

“Meaning it was both a LIQUID and a SOLID—“

Me: **METAL GEAR—**

[OBSERVERIATY]

Why is no one talking about the fact it look like the save from undertale

Me watching this short as if I’m not absolutely stupid:

“Hard on the outside soft on the inside” 💀

[filipe_paixao]

60 seconds? That's more than enough 🌚

Actual real working lightsabers before GTA6.
