This morning, we went and watched Harry potter and the Half-Blood Prince. the film had many scientific and fantasty characteristics. Hopefully, in the near future, we could copy the movie magic and transfer it into reality.
In all of the Harry Potter novels and films, Harry possesses a cloak that has the ability to make any person who wears it invisible. The invisible cloak has become more probable today because many scientists are trying to make ones now. At Duke University, students and scientists have tried to make this “invisible cloak”, however, it is still in the works and will not be finished until later. Also, in Japan, people have created cloaks that appear invsible but are not truly transulcent.
Another thing about Harry Potter are potions. Many of the potions that Harry Potter encounters in the franchise deal with extraordinary potions that can affect one’s emotions, make a p
erson feel lucky, and change a person’s appearance. Also, there are fake ingredients in these “potions” like gillyweed and toad’s warts. However, these potions could be easily made in the future and even today. Since Potions class is very similar to chemistry, it seems that making potions that can affect any person. Love potions or anger potions are some possible potions able to be created. Although a person could make some of the potions in Harry potter, a person cannot make a potion to change a person’s looks.
Harry Potter brings about science and art because first, movies are a form of artwork; seconds, movies have special effects that deal with science; lastly, the films have objects that could be made in the future.
