more lasers...now they're faster than the speed of light!


it looks like lasers are faster than...themselves. a sweet experiment at u rochester shows light exiting an optical fiber at virtually the same moment it enters. see the site for a brief explanation, or the article (in science) for the whole shebang ("observation of backward pulse propagation through a medium with a negative group velocity").
