Specialty Definition: Invisibility

(From Wikipedia, the free Encyclopedia)

Something is invisible if it can not be seen. Possible causes are: Radiation is invisible outside some wavelength range.

Visibility also depends on the eyes of the observer and/or the instruments used. Thus one can say "invisible to" and then a person, animal, instrument, etc.

Less exotically, invisibility can be achieved, or at least approximated, by camouflage.

Making use of real-time image displayed on a wearable display, scientists are able to create a see-through effect, if not invisibility.

Invisibility (lower visibility) for radar is called stealth technology.

Rings, cloaks, other devices and potions that render the wearer invisible have long featured in myths, fairy tales and role playing games. The concept of invisibility has also been explored in several movies, many of them comedies.

Some mystical creatures can make themselves invisible at will, such as Chinese dragons in some tales, which can shrink so small that humans cannot see.

According to physics a truly invisible man would be blind. The eye works by absorbing photons, however transparency would dictate that no photon would be absorbed.

Lexicography

Devil's Dictionary

FEMALE, n. One of the opposing, or unfair, sex. The Maker, at Creation's birth, With living things had stocked the earth. From elephants to bats and snails, They all were good, for all were males. But when the Devil came and saw He said: "By Thine eternal law Of growth, maturity, decay, These all must quickly pass away And leave untenanted the earth Unless Thou dost establish birth" -- Then tucked his head beneath his wing To laugh -- he had no sleeve -- the thing With deviltry did so accord, That he'd suggested to the Lord. The Master pondered this advice, Then shook and threw the fateful dice Wherewith all matters here below Are ordered, and observed the throw; Then bent His head in awful state, Confirming the decree of Fate. From every part of earth anew The conscious dust consenting flew, While rivers from their courses rolled To make it plastic for the mould. Enough collected (but no more, For niggard Nature hoards her store) He kneaded it to flexible clay, While Nick unseen threw some away. And then the various forms He cast, Gross organs first and finer last; No one at once evolved, but all By even touches grew and small Degrees advanced, till, shade by shade, To match all living things He'd made Females, complete in all their parts Except (His clay gave out) the hearts. "No matter," Satan cried; "with speed I'll fetch the very hearts they need" -- So flew away and soon brought back The number needed, in a sack. That night earth range with sounds of strife -- Ten million males each had a wife; That night sweet Peace her pinions spread O'er Hell -- ten million devils dead! G.J.
