It’s a glimpse of science fiction made fact: Scientists have created a new form of light that could someday be used to build light crystals. But before would-be Jedis start demanding their sabers, the advance is far more likely to lead to intriguing new ways of communicating and computing, researchers report this week in Science.Light is made up of photons—speedy, tiny packets of energy. Typically, photons do not interact with each other at all, which is why when using flashlights “you don’t see the light beams bounce off each other, you see them go through each other,” explains Sergio Cantu, a Ph.D. candidate in atomic physics at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. In new experiments, however, the physicists coaxed individual photons to cozy up to each other and link, similar to the way individual atoms stick together in molecules.

Photons are tiny particles that belong to the worlds without the atom, and can not be seen and can not be seen without it, being responsible for the transfer of light to the eye network, which turns into electrical pulses.
This is beautiful and wonderful information, I hope to see more of you my dear brother @contentjunkie
WOW beautiful lights.
This is really cool. I’m a sucker for new discoveries and technology, and this is pretty big. I can’t comprehend what this might mean for the advancement of humankind at this moment, but, this is an awesome advancement nonetheless.
Yes, the Jedi community are probably super pumped for this one...haha. Too cool.
Thanks for sharing, cheers.
If this is really true that we can generate light other than the process of Solar System then it would be really helpful for human beings and in my opinion this would be one of the greatest invention. Thanks for sharing this news with us. 🙂
Stay Blessed.
how it's can be usefull or benefit for us, the human in the world?
WOW beautiful lights.
It's beautiful! It will be an amazing wallpaper too. =)
Found it interesting but what real world applications are there, specifically? Or potential uses
