Uuuh too much going on. :D Science never stops, science never sleeps. On phys.org/ there are two articles today that get science fiction quite close to our present days: Researchers at Harvard and MIT managed to get photons to interact with each other! The physicists of you will know why this is astonishing. For the non-physicists: Photons usually do not do that. Never. But now they suddenly do ... What does that mean? Well, this means light sabre. We will finally get light sabres! Men I have been waiting for this for years. :D What will be next? Spaceshuttles to go to galaxies far far away? Or maybe Pokeballs?
One of the things that will be next quite certainly is a Star Wars kind of thing as well: Processors made out of carbon nanotubes. (Stanford this time.) Short version: They have the potential to be way faster than current processors and consume less energy at the same time. Sounds too good to be true, right?
