    Invisible
In summary, while there have been advancements in technology that allow certain objects to become invisible, there is currently no known scientific method for a person to become completely invisible. Some animals have evolved natural camouflage abilities, but they are not truly invisible. There is also no evidence that chemicals or drugs can make a person invisible, and it is unlikely that technology will advance enough to make true invisibility possible for humans.

Is that any possible if we be invisible through the genetic modification ?

The only thing remotely that i can think of that would give you the genetic capability to be invisible would be to darken your pigments which would make you visually invisible in the dark night.

But most closest thing and this would be a freak experiment would be to try a transparent cell like organism such as a jelly fish. -- to actually be invisible you'd need to controllably transform the cells to another energy and back which I don't see currently possible.

The concept of invisibility through genetic modification is currently not scientifically possible. While there have been advancements in genetic engineering, the ability to completely alter a person's physical appearance to the point of invisibility is not within our current capabilities. It is also important to consider the ethical implications of such a modification, as it could potentially raise concerns about privacy and safety. Additionally, the idea of invisibility raises questions about the impact it could have on society and how it could potentially be misused. It is important to focus on using genetics for beneficial and ethical purposes rather than pursuing unrealistic and potentially harmful ideas such as invisibility.
 

1. Is it scientifically possible for a person to become invisible?

At this time, there is no known scientific method for a person to become completely invisible. While there have been some advancements in the field of invisibility technology, it is not yet possible for a person to become invisible in the way that is commonly seen in movies or books.

2. Can technology be used to create invisibility?

Yes, there have been some advancements in technology that allow certain objects to become invisible. This is achieved through the use of special materials and techniques such as cloaking devices or camouflage technology. However, these methods are limited and are not yet able to make a person completely invisible.

3. Are there any animals that are naturally able to become invisible?

Yes, there are some animals that have evolved to have natural camouflage abilities, making them difficult to see in their natural environment. Examples include chameleons, octopuses, and certain species of insects. However, these animals are not truly invisible and can still be detected with the right equipment.

4. Can invisibility be achieved through the use of chemicals or drugs?

There is currently no known chemical or drug that can make a person invisible. While there have been some claims and rumors about such substances, there is no scientific evidence to support their effectiveness. In fact, attempting to use chemicals or drugs for this purpose can be dangerous and harmful to one's health.

5. Will technology ever advance enough to make invisibility possible for humans?

It is difficult to predict the future of technology, but at this time, it is unlikely that humans will ever be able to achieve complete invisibility. While there may be further advancements in the field of invisibility technology, it is unlikely that it will ever be possible for a person to become invisible in the way that is commonly portrayed in fiction.
