Romulan players rejoice!!

Scientists are finding ways to mask micro-waves and claim that it's possible to do with light photons also. :O


"Researchers say they are rapidly closing in on new types of materials that can throw a cloak of invisibility around objects, fulfilling a fantasy that is as old as ancient myths and as young as "Star Trek" and the Harry Potter novels.

Unlike those tales of fictional invisibility, the real-life technologies usually have a catch. Nevertheless, limited forms of invisibility might be available to the military sooner than you think."

Let's hope they've solved the warp drive problem by the time we're cruising the stars in our cloaked Warbird.

There is nothing in the laws of physics to prevent Warp Drive or cloaking technology.. it just wont be a sophisticated as a Romulan warbird cloak in Star Trek when a cloaking device comes out..

there is probably somebody out in space laughing at our primitive minded laws of physics hehe
