    Old news. Scientists have been working towards that for a while.

    A few years ago they achieved it. (saw it on the Science Channel or something's Star Trek Tech special)

    This is progress though towards a better one, and yes, it came out 5 years ago.

    I saw something about that and it sounds interesting, but honestly I'm more curious about transparent aluminum and the team that managed to achieve it:) (and yes I'm being serious about that).

    So in order to hide the submarine you must envelope it in a transparent cube suspended in a tube? What cloaks the tube? :p

    My cloak works so much better *throws a bedsheet on and runs out the room*

    Interesting, against sonic-based detection devices, all you need is a bedsheet - and the patience to walk very slowly, if Mythbusters is any indication.
