U.S. Navy Laser Weapon Shoots Down Drones in Test

In a grainy, black-and-white video that looks like a home movie of a UFO attack a sleek aircraft streaks through the sky one minute, only to burst into flames the next and plummet into the sea.
The silent video, which Raytheon Co. debuts Monday at the U.K.'s Farnborough International Air Show 2010, however, is not science fiction. The defense contractor says it depicts part of a test conducted in May during which the U.S. Navy used a  solid-state laser to shoot down unmanned aerial vehicles over the Pacific Ocean.

Science Begins At The World's Most Powerful X-Ray Laser

experiments are now underway using the world's most powerful X-ray laser, the Linac Coherent Light Source, located at the Department of Energy's SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory. Illuminating objects and processes at unprecedented speed and scale, the LCLS has embarked on groundbreaking research in physics, structural biology, energy science, chemistry and a host of other fields.

World's most powerful laser to trigger fusion reaction this year

A pivotal step in the march towards fusion power, the ''holy grail'' of sustainable clean energy, could be taken this year.
World's most powerful laser to trigger fusion reaction this year
Scientists have spent decades chasing the dream of fusion power, which holds out the promise of producing unlimited amounts of clean energy from hydrogen, the most abundant element in the universe.

World's most powerful laser is what Dr. Evil wants for Christmas

Just how strong is the world's most powerful laser on earth? Powerful enough to light a match with ease? Try 500 trillion matches.

The BBC took a trip to the National Ignition Facility in California and had a look at the new laser record holder — a combination of 192 of the world's most powerful lasers. Hailed as "the laser to end all lasers," the laser has 500 trillion watts of energy.

Capable of striking at the same time (at once billionth of a second), the laser can generate up to 500 times more energy than the entire American national grid.

Thanks to nuclear fusion — a reaction that combines the nuclei of atoms and results in the release of huge amounts of energy, the laser would probably make for a very awesome doomsday present. Dr. Evil and Darth Vader would be giddy as a school girl if they found this under their Christmas tree.

Planet's Largest, Most Powerful Laser Will Modernize Nukes (With New Pix!)

What do you do with the world’s biggest, highest-intensity laser system? Well, for starters, you could blast the nuclei of hydrogen atoms and transform their mass into energy in a reaction that rivals the force and temperature of an exploding nuclear warhead.

But these brilliant beams are currently undergoing live-fire testing before beginning operations next year, and Popular Mechanics got its hands on these exclusive images of the NIF chamber actually in use.

TORCH WORLD MOST POWERFUL FLASHLIGHT BY WICKED LASERS ,$248

Torch World Most Powerful FlashLight by Wicked Lasers

Currently being reviewed by The Guinness Book of World Records, The Torch is the world's brightest and most powerful flashlight. This flashlight is easily capable of melting plastic, lighting paper on fire within seconds, and if you want, frying an egg or a marshmallow on a stick! At 4100 lumens, The Torch is 100 lumens more powerful than The Polarion Helios, the former most powerful flashlight
