if the laser is applied to the cloud, then surely the laser is making new light ?
But the laser applied to the second cloud doesn't, itself, contain the information the messenger atoms do. From my understanding, it only provides the energy to make those messenger atoms emit photons in the pattern stored. So it is making new photons, but the laser photons only provide the needed energy.
Quote:"reincarnate " is a somewhat loose term and thus could be "reincarnate " turnip.
if the reincarnate part is bringing a template of wave form back into a photonic mass then maybe the mass is created by the laser, which in all intents and purposes is probably some type of attempt to use light as a form of data encryption rather than looking at light as a time/space property factor.
if ya gits me gist.
whats ya thoughts around that ?
No such thing as photonic mass. But it isn't a question of mass...it's a question of information pattern. Yes, they hope this provides some new methods for quantum computing and encryption.

it makes me feel that the nature of the spacial time factor of light has been left sitting on the shelf.
In between clouds, it's not light at all, just a pattern stored in atoms moving very slowly between the two sodium clouds. Within the clouds, it just works like refraction in glass, but on steroids. The speed of light is only c in a vacuum.
thanks, so i gather that the ability to remove the photons enables the ability to code it into a binary function(per say) ?
morse code at close to light speed for processing.
pondering for a moment the reduction in precious metals might be quite significant even if the speed is not substantially greater(i guess the speed is probably faster but do not know).
