if you put a lamp under an invisibility cloak? Does it light the way? What would it illuminate besides you?
I always wondered a similar question relating to Starcraft. Why don’t dark templars cast shadows? Or even the spy in TF2?!

For there to be a shadow the light has to first hit something then the remaining light be stopped by another object. For instance, light hitting a person and creating a silouette on the ground of him (shadow) with the remaining, non-obstructed light.
In the case of Starcraft and TF2, the light is completely bent so a shadow is not created. Occassionally in Star Trek, the cloak isn’t perfect and a semi-shadow is created. This is by design as in that universe a perfect cloak is only achieved by the Federation and Romulans. Most Klingon ships create a semi-shadow and when viewed against a bright backdrop (sun/planets) you can see the light being bent.

lol only you masterp. only youMy physics minor had a strong optics base. Seriously though, the more you learn about this stuff the more you notice it in everyday life. Sometimes, when completely and totally bored with absolutely no distractions at all, the mind can wander to such things.
