Scientists Demonstrate Cloaking Device -- For Tiny, Tiny Soldiers

Physicists at the University of Maryland have demonstrated the world's first

: an object of desire in the military survivability community at least since the first Romulan Birds of Prey were depicted in classic Star Trek back in the Sixties.

The catch? So far, it is only able to cloak objects 10 micrometers or smaller.
