It'd be impressive if they fire it at like half the speed of light
I mean, any other non-c speed really.
Actually, c is the speed of light in a vacuum, but light travels slower through a medium, like air. So lasers shot through air will actually travel slower than c.
(For anyone curious, the speed of light in earth air is like 99.97% as fast as in vacuum)
Maybe it's going to be space lasers.
Do you know what the religious affiliation of these space lasers will be?
You have a lot of chutzpah to ask such a question. Oy! What would your mother say?
I would be especially interested in speeds larger than c 🙂
Imagine if they made it fire so slow that you could just do a dark souls dodge roll to avoid it
I have a dollar store laser pointer than can also travel at the speed of light
Pssh, I have a 30 year old flashlight that can do the same.
Wait until you learn how old my sun is
Your sun's light can travel at the speed of light?
Claims to travel at the speed of light.
Still takes eight minutes to get here.
Sus.
The laser pointer can travel the light of speed? If you turn it on, does the laser not come out of the laser pointer?
The army trembling when I bring a mirror
I have wifi router that emits microwaves at the speed of light.
Pffft, I have a microwave that emits microwaves at microwave speeds to microwave things.
Impressive. The future is awesome! Can we maybe apply this to regular light too? Maybe even green light? Or purple? I'm so excited.
Well, for the green light we already have FTL tech, it was invented and perfected by the car behind you as you are waiting for the light to turn green.
According to the Gell-Mann amnesia effect, the same people also write about politics, environment and society.
Wait until they see the speaker that makes noise at the speed of sound.
Honestly I'd be more impressed by the Star Wars kind that go about thirty miles an hour.
Meanwhile, this headline goes at the speed of clicks:-).
What has science done?!
Has Science Really Gone Too Far Even as Decided to Use Even Go Want to do Look More Like?
Have you not seen those Blaster from the galaxy far far away that fire laser half the speed of sound?
