Growing efficiencies of near-infrared #lasers make them preferable over #microwaves, allowing the transmission antenna on the spacecraft to be scaled down from hundreds of meters across to about half a meter 📏. #OverviewEnergy successfully tested a system that transmitted “multiple thousands of watts” of power using a near-infrared laser from an aircraft flying at an altitude of 5,000 meters to a receiver on the ground https://spacenews.com/overview-energy-demonstrates-technologies-for-space-solar-power/

I do love #lasers #phwoar

Perhaps, for once, this nation could not slavishly hand over it's new technology to the United States and onsteads tell them to go fuck themselves if they want our pew-pew anti-drone laser.
Same for Israel too, dear fuck that doesn't need explaining....

I'm sure someone depraved enough will make an offensive weapon of this but for now this looks defensive, and just what poor Ukraine needs.

Russian spy ship Yantar targets RAF #pilots with #lasers

For 1st time, #Russian spy ship #Yantar used lasers against Royal Air Force pilots who were tracking it near UK waters

He said he ship entered #UK waters for the second time this year in recent weeks and was located north of #Scotland when the incident occurred.

Healey called the incident a deeply “dangerous move” that would be taken seriously.

Engadget: Someone made a ‘camera’ that can shoot at two billion frames per second. “Brian Haidet, a scientist creating videos on YouTube under the handle AlphaPhoenix, showed off a camera in a new video that can capture footage of a laser pointer at the speed of light. The camera is an update on a previous design that could capture footage at one billion frames per second, but it comes with a […]
