For SF works like "Star Wars", as a technique to attract spaceships and luggageTractor beam"Will appear. In reality, we succeeded in making a tractor beam that floats objects by floating ultrasonic ...

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 ...

The quest for a real life tractor beam continues, with a 2-micrometer-thick silicon light bender. The silicon metasurface changes a solid beam into a triple spiral one that can pick up particles.

This animation shows how a hypothetical future mission might eventually employ ‘tractor beam’ technology. (Credit: NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center, Conceptual Image Lab) Tractor beams — the ability ...

Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory and its international partners on Nov. 14 broke ground on an innovative experiment that aims to answer some of the biggest questions about the universe. The ...
