Today, we talk to someone across vast expanses of ocean and hear them clearly, as if they were standing in the same room, or see a video of them thousands of miles away. Crystal clear communication is made possible by laser pulses travelling through fiber optics. (In Everest is Hollow, lasers pulse from long worms.) Discover why fiber optics work by watching this video from the University of Auckland, in New Zealand. (Coincidentally, Sir Edmund Hillary, the first to climb Mount Everest, was a native of New Zealand.)
