Scientists invent "Vantablack", the blackest black ever, so black it looks like a black hole

Onto the second page and nobody has made a comment about fuligin finally being invented!?

Gosh SV, I am so disappointed in your taste in sci-fi literature. :mob:
 
Is it blacker than the blackest black, times infinity?

I'm actually curious what it would be like to stand in a room in which the walls, ceiling and floor were all Vantablack. The room would appear infinite in size and all the objects would appear to be floating in space. Talk about disorienting,

It'd be even more disorienting standing in an anechoic chamber made of the stuff.

Maybe a maze where every surface is covered in it? That would be worse than a house of mirrors.

Actually it would be way easier than a house of mirrors. In a house of mirrors people walk around with their eyes open, letting their sense of vision repeatedly fuck up their attempts to navigate the place. With a Vantablack maze, you'd just accept not being able to see and get on with feeling your way through.
 
Next we will combine it with a detergent that gets things whiter than white to produce greyer than grey!

I suppose any sort of transparent sealant to prevent it from flaking off would mess up the blackness yes?
 
I showed the pictures of Vantablack to my mother, she thought that it was holes photoshopped on, and asked if it was the foil I was talking about.
 
Psychological warfare via coating riot troops with this material. The future will be a terrible place we will not want to live through.
