Laser=light
You can estimate (with math) how far the light @ this power @ this frequency will go in *list materials*
Light will spread, It is it’s nature, lasers just stay more in line but it will still do it.
So yes, it is realistic.But it would be very hard to control with precision to say the least. Who knows though, it might be done.

Jetpacks, how could I forget? Yes, jetpacks. We already have them of course, but they are expensive and don’t work very well. But give us 200 years and I think we could develop a model t jet pack.

Oooo, jetpacks; I’d not thought of those either. I’ll have to see…

Just heard south Korea has anti drone guns (EMP guns) and anti drone drones that capture other drones and bring them back so the south Koreans can tell who owned the drone. Pretty cool stuff.

anti drone drones…that’s cool. 🙂 What is really strange is when you make up something futuristic and then suddenly realize that people are doing it today. For example, a brother of a friend installs sound systems into the walls of houses. Also, they can work out settings for lights in rooms, so they turn on and off at preset times; various lights come on depending on the mood you want; etc. And showers…they can program them, setting temperature, pressure, steam; all kinds of things. And have various settings preset for morning showers, evening showers, etc. These are obviously mansions and such that have this stuff, but still…

To Hope. It’s Daniel#2.
Here is a scheme for faster than light transportation from one planet to another.
If speed=distance/time, and mathematically at the speed of light time stands still, then take a look at these numbers.
186000=d/0. If the time variable is zero, and division by zero= imaginary number, then according to Einstein’s theory of relativity at the speed of light plus one, distance is imaginary! Therefore, if you make a special light tunnel that passes invisible high intensity monochromatic (laser) light through the hole in a donut of cesium plasma ( the stuff that runs atomic clocks) the light could burst to a speed over 300 times its usual rate! Now, if you contained the plasma in a special torus ( donut shaped container), and provided the tunnel with a heat shielded access airlock, then you could transport people, robots, or supplies to another tunnel tuned to resonate at the same frequency over 100,000,000 light years away instantly! Infact, time could travel at completely different speeds! This tunnel would be about a hundred feet long, and about twenty feet tall. Around the outside of the center of the tunnel is a large donut-shaped ring (the torus). The donut ring is about ten feet wider than the tunnel. The access panel is located at one of the ends of the tunnel. When the person reaches the center of the tunnel, they will be instantly transported to the center of a tunnel of the same description, tuned to the same frequency, anywhere in the universe!Hey Daniel#2, I’m confused. How could something travel at 300 times its usual rate when distance is imaginary? How could you measure speed at all in such a situation? Would’t travel itself be imaginary too if distance is imaginary? Wouldn’t physics essentially fall apart? Or at least wouldn’t whatever when through this tunnel be so altered that they could not physically step out into the normal realm?

Thanks Daeus, I really appreciate your criticism. In truth, no one has ever exceeded the speed of light. When answering anything dealing with photomechanical physics, one must always remember that matter and energy are related. Remember E=Mc^2? One consideration is that starlight from stars hundreds of millions of light years away is visible from earth. It is within the bounds of photomechanical physics that light beams can exeed 186000 miles per second. Infact, scientists have caused light to pulse several hundred times the normal speed of light when directed through a chamber of cesium gas or plasma. According to Einstein’s theory of relativity, the speed of light, relative to an observer, is the very basis of time, matter, distance, and relative speed. Basically, if relativity is true, than vortexes or wormholes outside the boundaries of time and distance could connect one body of matter to another right through spacetime, or the mathematical and phisical plane that connects all the mater and energy in the universe. If the light used were not monochromatic (laser light) then the test victim would be hopeless, stuck in a wormhole of different frequencies. They could never be retuned back into matter. But if laser light is used, then retuning the subject to matter would be achieved by reversing the process of molecular excitement. Actually, the acronym LASER stands for Light Amplification by Stimulated Emission of Radiation. Cool huh!
Ok, I think I basically understand. So travel doesn’t become imaginary, it just changes its dynamics relative to the speed of light (or something like that).

Oh… ow ow ow ow… reading through this thing has given me a thinking-headache. Numbers… are not my forte. Whew!
Y’all have no idea how much power you have to be able to understand these convoluted mechanical and mathematical formulas.I think I’ll stick with atoms, neurons, protons, electrons, ions, and molecules. They’re so much simpler.
Daniel#2 Space travel…I think I might comprehended about half of that. But it’s still cool. I don’t have space travel in this book but I’ll have to remember that for sometime else.
Do you have any thoughts on laser weapons or the possibility of laser weapons that will shoot a programmed distance and then ‘fizzle out’ so they are lethal after that distance? Or any thoughts about what weapons might look like 200 years in the future.
Also, does anyone have any idea about what type of wounds a laser weapon would give?

To Hope, Daniel#2. About laser weapons. A laser is produced by energizing ruby ( or other like material ) atoms with two charged particles at a time. LASER is an acronym for Light Amplification by Stimulated Emission of Radiation. That must be a little hard to grasp, but you don’t need to. Technically, there is no scientific way to make a laser “tune out” after a certain distance, but hey! in 200 years? Well I think that if you can basically understand the principle of LASER, you can work it into any design of weapon. Since I understand it, you do not have to. A futuristic laser weapon could be made to fit in a device much like a 9mm handgun. The charge energizer could fit in the grip or handle, the laser generator ( the thing that makes the laser “laze” ) would be the barrel or the top part. It would look like a silver paper towel tube ( about 1 1/2 inches in diameter ) with a pistol grip like handle and trigger. A little glass window (about 5mm in diameter, right where you would expect the bullet to come out, would be the opening for the laser to shoot out. Such a weapon would have an impressive range ( although it would quickly de-power ( fizzle out ) once it strikes its target. This design could be bigger, and resemble a machine gun with two handles and sights. The bigger version would have a more lethal effect at longer ranges. On wounds. A laser weapon would either blow a hole through its target, or, if the weapon were equipped with an electrostatic precipitator, it would actually dematerialize or vaporize its target. The electrostatic precipitator would look like a bulge in the barrel, right over the trigger.
Daniel #2 Thanks so much for your comments. And, since you seem familiar with this sort of stuff, I have a few more questions (if you don’t mind). Would a wound from a laser weapon be about as dangerous as a wound from a normal gun or would they be more deadly? Would the wound be burned at all? How much could a laser weapon go through before the shot stops? Could you see the flashes of light (like you sometimes can in movies) or would it be too fast…like a bullet? Are there any sort or energy shields or some sort of material which could stop such a shot? And do you think a gun would only be able to hold one shot, shoot indefinitely, or somewhere between?
Umm, that was more than a few questions. You don’t have to answer them all if you don’t want and since most of it is theoretical at this point I suppose there could be more than one answer…

Hi Hope, it’s me, Daniel#2. The effect of such a weapon would be much like a stab from a white hot sword, ouch! As for appearance, that’s all relative to frequency. Depending on what materials are used, a laser beam can have a wide range of color and destructive properties. With a frequency of 3 terahertz or so, the laser beam would be invisible and cause severe burns, but it would be quickly stopped after passing through a victim if not absorbed altogether. Between 30 and 100 terahertz, the beam would be brilliant crimson to bright red in color, and slightly more penetrating than the earlier one. Around 300 terahertz, the beam would be a greenish turquoise in color, less heat, and could penetrate several nonconcrete walls. 800 terahertz would yield brilliant blue to violet beams with even more power, but less heat. 3-30 picohertz would give an invisible ultraviolet beam with great power, but relatively little heat. X-Ray beams would come at 300 picohertz (although I’m not sure if materials exist to produce beams of this frequency), and the most powerful of all would be gamma rays at frequencies of well over 900 picohertz. A victim of these beams would die of radiation. A decent shielding could be provided for lower frequencies technically, but I’m not sure how one could be constructed without machines of ponderous size.
About number of shots. Recently, I’ve formulated a theory on limitless energy supplies (see my posts on Rolena’s brainstorming page), and free limitless energy can be extracted from photonic vacuum fields, so your gun could shoot about 20 shots in a row before needing to recharge for 10 minutes. Basically, it would charge itself.
