A Danish physicist discovered a way to slow down the speed of light, which could teach us more about our universe's 'speed limit.'
that we can manipulate the speed of light, even going so far as to stop it, move it around, and more. But how exactly was she able to pull this off? The answer is simple: science.Our understanding of the universe and its constants has changed quite a bit over the decades. However, the speed of light is still considered one of the most constant things within our field of knowledge.
Light usually stays at that speed, too. It doesn’t randomly speed up or slow down. However, as Hau showed in 1999, we can manipulate the speed of light, and even stop it in its tracks, with the right scientific experiments. Slowing the speed of light is no easy process, though. In fact, it requires a very complex set up which includes cooling down atoms to extremely low temperatures close to absolute zero. This basically makes the atoms become a “super-atom.” And that subsequence super atom is very good at slowing the speed of light.since 1999. And Hau says that slowing the speed of light and manipulating it could open new doors for physics.
Further, manipulating light in systems could also allow us to upgrade wireless communication speed or even unlock . Of course, the other possibilities are that slowing the speed of light and manipulating it in other ways can help answer more questions about our universe and nature.Joshua Hawkins fell in love with writing and technology at a young age. Eventually he decided to combine the two and started writing about video games, the latest tech, and all the cool gadgets he could find.
