Real Invisibility Cloak Created: The Cloaking Devices They Won’t Tell You About

A real, working cloaking device (a.k.a. an invisibility cloak) may not be science fiction after all. From Star Trek to Harry Potter, from countries around the world to the private sector, from the military to public companies, it seems that this concealment technology may actually exist—and it’s not the first time it’s been developed.

Declassified documents were released from the Defense Intelligence Agency (DIA) titled, “Technology Forecast: Metamaterials in Cloaking,” highlighting  several critical aspects of metamaterials being used for cloaking technology. How does a cloaking device work? Surprisingly, China has been at the forefront of invisibility cloak development—or, at least they’ve been most public about it. Rumors have been swirling within our own government that this technology has been around for decades, beginning with the Philadelphia Experiment in the 1940s and being used for actual battlefield applications in recent history. Both Nikola Tesla and Albert Einstein talked about this kind of quantum stealth technology and a Unified Field Theory.

Are cloaking devices real? Has the military already been using them, and does the technology come from downed UFO craft that were reverse engineered? Join Ben Chasteen and Rob Counts on this Edge of Wonder live show as they look more closely at this real invisibility cloak.

Q&A: “Where is the first place you would sneak into with an invisibility cloak?” “Are movies like Back to the Future and Star Trek documentaries?” “Could ‘shadow people’ be aliens or humans with invisibility technology?”
