Danish Physicist Lene Hau was Able to Slow Down the Speed of Light to 38 mph and was Eventually Able to Manipulate it

Posted by in category: physics

The speed of light is a universal physical constant that is important in many aspects of physics. Light travels at a continuous and finite speed of 186,000 miles per second. But did you have note that the speed of light can be manipulated?

In 1999, Lene Hau, a physicist from Denmark, was the first to slow light down to only 38 mph. Later, she could totally stop, control, and move it.
