Wow, that is fascinating. Really, how in the hell is our act of recording results having a impact on the observable light patterns? That is out of this world crazy shit.

I wonder how much of a impact we as a species have on reality as we know it.

Noetic science is a form of bullshit famously promoted by Dan Brown in The Lost Symbol. It should be noted that noetic "science" and noetic philosophy are distinct. Noetic (from the Greek noetikos, "mental") philosophy is philosophy dealing with the mind, intellect, or consciousness. However, this more often goes under the more obvious name of "theory" or "philosophy of mind" these days. Noetic "science" is closer to the pseudoscience of parapsychology and other such New Age fluff as "expanding your consciousness."
