Wildest Police Chases Caught by Lightning !
OK Now the Highway Patrol has a way to fry the electronics of the Bad Guys Racing Around on the Streets ! Great way to test these.

Lightening gun
In a lightening storm when you see a big strike from ground to cloud or cloud to ground your eyes perceive it to be a single strike. In fact there are multiple strikes once the original one has taken place. The first strike sets up an ionized path that acts as a conduit for lower voltage charges that come from surrounding clouds that hop from cloud to cloud and then to the ground. Not all that different from these military experiments that are using a powerful laser to set up a conductive plasma. How much fun can that be anyway eh! Gotta have our toys to play with. Hang the cost, it's a military hobby.

light wepons
My question lead me to this site, and I ask. Does the military have a light which can be sent to predetermined elevations and remain lit until hit?

Not quite right...
The laser does not pull electrons in from the "surrounding" air. Its imparted heat dissociates atoms in the air that the beam actually hits, forming a mixture of "free" ions (plasma) that has markedly increased conductivity.

Lets celebrate!.. more toys for the psychopaths
Just what we need... more ways for the psychopaths to murder people.
Its time to DE-fund the pentagon psychopaths.

You need honestly need to stop talking. Stop preaching this garbage and go elsewhere if you have an issue with this kind of technology.

Only works in the air
Will NOT work in a vacuum.
Of course we're not talking about shooting space ships here, just automobiles.

If we combined this technology with quantum levitation technology, is there not the possiblilty of building a working model of a lightsaber. The blade of a lightsaber is supposed to consist of plasma. The laser would provide the basis for the plasma to form the blade. If a small mirror or some other alloy or polymer could be held in suspension to terminate the lasers path, we could control the length of the blade. As for the power source to provide the power for said blade, we dont have that technology yet. We're getting to that point, but still not there. I am not a a great science mind, nor do i claim to be, but i do see some potential here.
