Default Re: OT Interesting news item

Lasers, uhh Bell Labs wasn't it?

Unless it's the DVD blue laser, that was random dudes at Oxford Scientific. Well sort of. Yes it was a blue laser, but not made the way everyone now makes them today.

Honestly that modified jumbo has been being fiddled with for so long I think it's possible the nukes will have decayed before it's declared finished and operational. Bear in mind for every test where something works, something else goes wrong with it. Still as a low priority research job what can you expect?
