Scientists may have finally figured out how to create a real-life tractor beam that is also easily portable.
Scientists may have discovered how to create a real-life tractor beam using electromagnetic radiation that can draw particles toward it. The result is something very akin to the tractor beam seen in science fiction media like Star Wars. Further, the scientists say they may have found a way to make it more portable. A paper on the team’s findings is published in the journal ACS Photonics.
However, using a tractor beam that is designed to specifically target the cells the doctors need could help cut down on the amount of slicing and scar tissue that patients need to put up with. But how exactly did they do it? Well, scientists say they started with a triple helix solenoid beam to make the real-life tractor beam. This is essentially a twist of three different beams or strands of light.
