Except nuclear weapons have already brought world peace between relevant actors. What you are hoping for is a return to WW1/2 levels of violence. No thanks.
I'm not sure I'd call a global Mexican standoff "world peace." More like "world anxiety."

#22I remember finding that 3D projection using same tech in 2012 it was cool but loud (popping).
What controls the distance? You shine a laser beam in some direction in order to create an image/flashbang/whatever twenty meters away. Why does it ionize the air twenty meters away but not ten meters away (along the same ray from the laser to the projection)?

#24Or reduce it in size and print it on demand into the outer layers of a traditional fusion reactor plasma-donut, to dampen minor fluctuations, without constantly modifying the underlying superconducting coils.
So cool this actually works.

#26People need to wake up and face the fact that we are being monitored by an alien race. A trained observer and fighter pilot doing exercises off the coast of Santa Barbara has gone on record saying that he saw an alien moving at thousands of miles per hour. The craft actively jammed his radar which is an act of war. The New York Times and other major news outlets have reported on this. Except the fact that lots of thi…
I call it B.S. We heard this story before so it's nothing new. Looks like the aliens monitor the U.S only.... The fact that "major news outlets have reported on this" makes even more "credible". When we gonna see people kidnapped by aliens on TV?

#27Would definitely explain the sightings of rapidly moving objects with no propulsion. Also the "object was mirroring my movements" thing.

A plasma can produce a lot of noise on the RF spectrum. Something of that size and that distance from the surface can clearly jam quite a lot of equipment. I wonder if radio amateurs caught interferences on those days.

This page linked earlier [0] relates one possibility to the 'Bethe formula', where depending on the energy of the beam (proton in their example) you can control where the burst appears. [0] https://www.otherhand.org/home-page/area-51-and-other-strang...
The fact that the particles have mass and decelerate is what produces the sharp drop in velocity: the slower it goes the more it slows down per unit of time or of distance traveled. Like a bullet travelling through water. So you get that nice sharp asymptote in the position-vs-time graph.
I don't think that webpage is applicable to light or other photon beams. Photons can't slow down unless they encounter a change of medium -- but that's basically projecting onto a physical "screen"... the laser operator can't influence the depth position of the screen. But thanks for the link, it's the first time I've seen a "3D projection technology" that had a coherent answer to the depth-control question. Maybe the Navy is using massive-particle beams instead of lasers and the Forbes journalist just doesn't know the difference. Or maybe it's deliberate disinformation, like how fusion weapons were named "hydrogen" bombs.

It was called Aerial 3D [0] it was mentioned in OP article in a link. [0] https://www.google.com/amp/s/techcrunch.com/2011/11/15/aeria...
