Story

The newly created photon molecules don't behave like traditional light, but more like a lightsaber, Lukin said. "The physics of what's happening in these molecules is similar to what we see in the movies."


W00t! Yeah there's all kinds of words after the ones above that go on to say extreme conditions in the lab blah blah and other stuff that doesn't really matter because lightsabers.

I have my credit cards out, where's the order button?

It's perfect, the goal has been achieved since this thread was created and multiple other across the world. If someone just said "we made light stick to metal" nobody would give a crap, but since they said "OMG WE MADE LIGHTSABER (sorta)" everyone want's to see what's going on. PR man

When I read this I thought it was awesome news but the light saber comparison was not necessary.
