In what could prove to be a major breakthrough in quantum memory storage and
information processing, German researchers have frozen the fastest thing in the
universe: light. And they did so for a record-breaking one minute.
It's fascinating how fast science is advancing as of late. The breakthroughs are definitely coming in at an exponential rate here lately.
The article interests me because I'm a telecommunications engineer who works with optical carriers and photonics so I've given light a lot of thought. Nonetheless, just like many of you, I'm stunned by this advancement!
Honestly, not every technological advance is a sign of the singularity.
