“A team of scientists claim to have discovered a new colour that no human has ever seen before. The research follows an experiment in which researchers in the US had laser pulses fired into their eyes. By stimulating specific cells in the retina, the participants claim to have witnessed a blue-green colour that scientists have called ‘olo,’ but some experts have said the existence of a new colour is ‘open to argument.’ The findings, published in the journal Science Advances on Friday, have been described by the study’s co-author, Prof Ren Ng from the University of California, as ‘remarkable.’ He and his colleagues believe that the results could potentially further research into colour blindness.” (04/20/25)
