Slow Light: Experiments & Observations

[dcl]

Hey, I'm very inexperienced when it comes to this sort of Physics.

I have read recently that they have managed to slow light down to 17 m/s.

Was the experiment observable by the human eye by any chance?
Could they actually see the light propogate at 17m/s through the given gas/what ever.

Any chance a video has been released of it, given the above is true?


Thanks in advance.

Ahhh ok.
Thought so.


Thanks for clearing that up for me.
