Time travel & Space-time Particle Decelerator

  • “You could imagine a burglar using a space-time cloak to create an invisible corridor leading to a safe,” says McCall. With the cloak turned on, the burglar could run through this corridor, open the safe, steal the contents, shut the safe and escape, while any security camera trained on the safe would just show a continuous image of a locked door at every point in time, explains McCall. “The dastardly event would have been edited from history,” he says.
    McCall hopes that a fibre-optic cloak creating a space-time void around 30 centimetres long, to hide actions taking place over a few nanoseconds, could be built within the next year.
