Light does not work that way. White objects reflect light, black objects absorb light, and glass objects refract light.Originally Posted by Snakenator1
If you want something to be invisible, you need light to bend around the object, giving the illusion of it not even being there because the light is neither being absorbed, reflected nor refracted. However, it also means the pilot cannot see because the light waves cannot hit their eyes or the ship's sensors. Plus, even if you could still see where you were going, invisibility is sort of overpowered.
It is sorf of like phase-shifting devices that allow users to pass through solid objects.
Actress: "Hey, I am having some trouble with scene 23, where I am out-of-phase and can pass my hand through solid matter."
Producer: "Yeah, exactly, because you're out-of-phase."
Actress: "...so how come I don't fall through the floor?"
*Producer and Creative Consultant look at eachother, then back to the actress*
Creative Consultant: "We'll get back to you on that."
