By Orelvis 1226110690 Reply Spam [+0] Moderate Up Moderate Down Removehow come the lens through which concentrated light passes doesn't melt ?
By a guest user 1225616674 Reply Spam [+0] Moderate Up Moderate Down RemoveLight and all the caloric energy must be concentrated at a focal point, which is located at a certain distace AWAY from the lens or (in this case) mirror. the lens acts as an aplifier of the enegry, and it doesn't melt because the highest temperatures occur only at the focal point.

By just77jay 1225143364 Reply Spam [+0] Moderate Up Moderate Down RemoveA weapon that could only be used in sunny weather, has extemly short range, can be defeated by a smoke screen, fragile, large and ungainly, to big to comoflage, can only fire at stationary targets, ect, ect, ect. No military on the planet would want one.
By tankerguy 1225488930 Reply Spam [+1] Moderate Up Moderate Down Removebut can't it evaporate enemy satellites passing by in orbit ? how about assembling an array of such ray-guns in space itself to shoot down the enemy ?
By a guest user 1225616647 Reply Spam [+0] Moderate Up Moderate Down Remove...lets see how good a "weapon" this makes..
1) too big to move easily (area of collection enormous if high heat wanted)
2) can you steer it - well maybe but generally only a few degrees either side ofthe suns pathway across the sky
3) can you get your target to sit at focus (doubt it) - moving focus? not at these energies
4) Oh yeah ...what happens on a cloudy day
that's why this would be not much of a weapon
No put it to something useful.
