00:20.780 --> 00:25.580
Inside this at the so using a modifiedmilitary radar for weather research.

00:26.180 --> 00:28.550
Improving lazy is fordefense and combat.

00:29.150 --> 00:32.780
In refining tactical and technologicalmess dates for tracking

00:32.780 --> 00:33.830
nuclear. Threats.

00:42.650 --> 00:43.470
Curry chain point.

00:44.230 --> 00:47.170
Published a town the californiahighway can be sitting.

00:47.670 --> 00:50.230
Here tourists that peeksat the sea need you.

00:50.980 --> 00:54.350
Whales beached the water tips Meenacame with the setting in denying.

00:54.350 --> 00:58.390
He was a will cite a larger radaron the back of a transport truck.

00:58.950 --> 01:02.630
That's part of the study conductedby in PSN center for into

01:02.630 --> 01:07.100
disciplinary remotely piloted aircraftstudies forster pass for short.

01:07.790 --> 01:11.460
Today we're using the mobile radartrap which is a face to re

01:11.460 --> 01:16.120
system palm supporting an experimentby the university of miami

01:16.440 --> 01:20.650
from looking at Atmospheric conditionsof Stratus clouds typically

01:20.650 --> 01:24.790
found often fixer helps in we're lookingat the physics of the cloud.

01:25.340 --> 01:30.820
And we were utilize same chaff andsalt to be able to those flick

01:30.820 --> 01:33.730
of a cloud in the salt in the killeight bigger drop once in

01:33.730 --> 01:38.040
initiate trusts all the radar itselfis in the army phased array

01:38.040 --> 01:43.610
system that we acquired from thearmy back about 2000 and the

01:43.650 --> 01:47.650
main purpose was that everybodyin the research community this

01:47.650 --> 01:52.990
scientific community wanted a mobilephased array radar and so

01:52.990 --> 01:56.940
over over the past 10 years we'vemodified the radar to.

01:57.440 --> 02:02.410
I'm allowed to do me a logical workand that was done in conjunction

02:02.410 --> 02:04.340
with tear verse city of Oklahoma.

02:04.940 --> 02:08.750
Lively Stein and me when out stormchasing with them and others

02:09.200 --> 02:13.400
I'm to be able to incur mentallydeveloped the software other

02:13.400 --> 02:17.380
tools that the rate are needed to peopleprovide sign to the capability.

02:18.230 --> 02:22.160
You take the military system. Wekept the mill turn radar portion

02:22.160 --> 02:25.020
and then we got rid of theirprocessor and their control.

02:25.560 --> 02:30.260
We have a processor here to on basicallycollector process the

02:30.260 --> 02:34.320
data and then we have our who weall the controls for the radars

02:34.320 --> 02:35.210
than from the laptop.

02:35.810 --> 02:40.250
Sell we turn into a very simple systemgrant to this is not doing

02:40.250 --> 02:43.670
minutes military function sell.It's it's doing something else

02:43.670 --> 02:45.780
completely different thatit was designed for.

02:46.310 --> 02:51.190
These working on this by one radara is plough forms of so coming

02:51.190 --> 02:52.800
year work on a land a short are different.

02:53.410 --> 02:56.840
Prius say yeah was a nice likethree to technician on the esc

02:56.840 --> 03:00.520
to a six non anti-shiv missile defencefreyre system. Maybe is

03:00.520 --> 03:03.780
lobby out water at arsenal sidebeing made a park or something

03:03.780 --> 03:07.250
that appears to be older outdatedthe son learn all about the

03:07.250 --> 03:10.130
your algi. That's leah defer aspectof using radar for sure.

03:10.920 --> 03:13.780
I'm sure everybody has seen theweather channel for the local

03:13.780 --> 03:18.210
news and the doppler radars and thatdata they collect to display

03:18.210 --> 03:23.080
anti a lot of those systems takeapproximately maybe 15 to 20

03:23.080 --> 03:27.000
minutes to collect the data will weakencollector an entire volley

03:27.000 --> 03:31.680
em in up about a minute to a minutein half it's very fantastic

03:31.680 --> 03:35.580
can stay in the entire stormedand about some five sack.

03:35.620 --> 03:38.840
It's what we're looking for isbasically very typical data we

03:38.840 --> 03:43.620
turn that we'd see on any PPI wecan see the aircrafts we can

03:43.650 --> 03:47.950
see wham the aircraft has expandedthe chaff and when the chaff

03:47.950 --> 03:51.790
start to blowing which the bloomarrayed and then for operator

03:51.790 --> 03:55.320
the chaff will depend upon once againthe Atmospheric conditions.

03:56.600 --> 03:59.810
Twin otters are primary researchaircraft and we've made quite

03:59.810 --> 04:04.010
a few modifications to a that meaninland on the nose some hard

04:04.010 --> 04:07.710
points on the wings and we havevilla the to drop things from

04:07.710 --> 04:09.830
a like challenge forcenter Billy is.

04:10.370 --> 04:14.320
Um being carried quite a bit eventsrotation in the the slush

04:14.320 --> 04:15.160
of aircraft.

04:15.850 --> 04:20.340
On the wing there is say a clubto sex and aerosol combination

04:20.340 --> 04:24.840
of probes is in these probes themeasure droplet number and size

04:25.250 --> 04:29.170
and also heiress all I'm neck isa Sin idea of exactly what's

04:29.170 --> 04:33.660
making a the physics of the copped.So what's the size the number

04:34.040 --> 04:38.660
the composition wits affecting.Those droplets in the cloud all

04:38.660 --> 04:43.650
can be measured from those instrumentsinto about three to four

04:43.650 --> 04:47.630
or science missions a year withthe twin are sometimes more um

04:47.660 --> 04:50.180
mobile radar. Maybe oneor two missions a year.

04:50.820 --> 04:54.390
I'm primarily I'm for the mobile radar.It's a severe storm later.

04:55.020 --> 04:58.680
Expanded you've primarily get thebest I'm banking of Oxford

04:58.680 --> 04:59.790
sign-ups looking at.

05:00.300 --> 05:05.530
Um um we're all toll phenomena havea lot of scatter a thunderstorm

05:05.530 --> 05:08.800
has a lot of cloud droplets.It will scatter expand back.

05:10.050 --> 05:13.470
Laid down moaning the data on thatwe have plucked it over the

05:13.470 --> 05:17.830
past four ron's today was a full ryanlast about two and a half hours.

05:18.180 --> 05:22.240
So we have a violent eight to 10hours worth of data to download

05:22.580 --> 05:25.090
and whole flee in about the nexthour and a half the battle will

05:25.090 --> 05:29.180
be downloaded will send a two anotherperson who'll transcribe

05:29.180 --> 05:32.510
it for the universe. He miami andthen they'll take the data

05:32.510 --> 05:33.180
and process.

05:34.010 --> 05:37.050
And it's one of the things I thinkshowcases what we can do that

05:37.080 --> 05:41.770
and hp yes or pass which is beingboth a a a military organization

05:41.770 --> 05:46.790
pride and 80 Annie university makinggoing to the um military inventory.

05:47.290 --> 05:50.640
Get some peaceful quit that that'snot being utilized and then

05:50.930 --> 05:54.940
take adequate that modified togive it a new capability which

05:55.090 --> 05:57.910
is involving the sciences and so.

05:58.630 --> 06:03.120
Doubt radar is not really X asa bowlto anybody else in the near

06:03.120 --> 06:06.880
perceived world like suffer passme to go into the in the tory

06:06.880 --> 06:10.040
de that modify it and then work withother universities to bring

06:10.040 --> 06:13.720
a whole new capability to bearwhich allows some new types of

06:13.720 --> 06:15.540
measurements adjustsfor possible before.

06:17.360 --> 06:20.610
Now I'm back to completing finishingtheir pathway now I'm yeah

06:20.640 --> 06:23.930
I'm mad aid. We're made this timesupporting mass that collecting

06:23.930 --> 06:27.920
pollution data in southern californiaof nights scientists some

06:27.920 --> 06:31.110
law enforcement team up to seenewly a nuclear threat and the

06:31.110 --> 06:32.290
scene in says go. Day.

06:45.800 --> 06:46.610
Ooh ooh.

06:48.020 --> 06:51.880
Across the bay from services careallen made a island a former

06:51.880 --> 06:56.200
naval facility now from port to maybecargo vessels on this day.

06:56.310 --> 07:00.430
It is a testing area for maritimeinterdiction operations and

07:00.430 --> 07:04.620
weapons of mass destruction intelligencesurveillance and reconnaissance.

07:05.240 --> 07:09.470
On board the envy Cape Orlando participantsand observers gather

07:09.500 --> 07:10.490
at the morning meeting.

07:11.180 --> 07:15.340
Pimp yes professor alex bird at skate leadsthe multi part field experiment.

07:16.310 --> 07:18.010
All to put together.

07:18.530 --> 07:24.890
New calm for a double U the isr populationsas they unfold raised

07:24.890 --> 07:29.070
on the small crop breath in thearea or what carter shoot duly

07:29.070 --> 07:33.490
arrayed for the threat full whicheerie I'll for the albanians

07:33.810 --> 07:38.380
all of you lisa from a cheery ala trafficking into the aerial

07:38.380 --> 07:41.440
for Kutcher. That'sbasically use call.

07:41.960 --> 07:43.230
Off Arch fermentation.

07:44.600 --> 07:48.400
The experiment is parted by lawrenceweber more national laboratory

07:48.600 --> 07:52.220
technology firms law enforcementand defense agencies.

07:53.190 --> 07:56.580
The plans to simulate nuclear threatat sea and um I hadn't.

07:57.260 --> 08:00.290
Anti is an assortment of technologyin tactics to detect and

08:00.290 --> 08:02.170
track radioactive. Materials.

08:07.650 --> 08:10.840
We're inching laser spectroscopysister their right to back a

08:10.840 --> 08:11.540
rental truck.

08:12.340 --> 08:16.480
Operators roam the poured skating nearbywear. Hats is for radioactive material.

08:17.430 --> 08:19.940
Him the fire exit signinside the. Building.

08:22.670 --> 08:23.210
There's a. White.

08:25.830 --> 08:29.410
Yeah it's a naval they'll to to getthe inside a feeling of janet.

08:30.290 --> 08:33.210
A shut the door for thatplay shut the of.

08:34.910 --> 08:36.340
Signed up for most of the time.

08:38.180 --> 08:39.020
I'm actually shooting.

08:39.830 --> 08:42.430
Since the door to the shootingWeibo there. But it's. Good.

08:46.660 --> 08:50.430
The systems boxy design basic laptopinnovative game control

08:50.430 --> 08:52.760
pad the lie. It's true capabilities.

08:53.510 --> 08:57.150
One laser history ajayan despiseMadonna surface over target.

08:57.940 --> 09:01.500
Another laser stimulates amplify.The missions from the plasma

09:01.840 --> 09:04.130
that is detective. I wannamore Specter's dips.

09:04.910 --> 09:08.700
The game induced. But second laserthe text traces of explosives

09:08.850 --> 09:11.050
and other substances concert shows.

09:12.530 --> 09:15.070
Don't fairly fired three timesin in your your read.

09:16.130 --> 09:16.830
It gets ahead.

09:17.420 --> 09:21.300
PC. Exact ranging amount of materialthat can be detected by

09:21.300 --> 09:22.790
the system is held. Secret.

09:27.150 --> 09:27.880
That city.

09:29.510 --> 09:32.570
The marine unit of the sample to scareof police department tracked

09:32.570 --> 09:35.560
a small boat suspected of carryingnuclear material.

09:36.210 --> 09:40.470
The small but in this instance oppressedgarden story baseload one.. Yeah.

09:41.340 --> 09:48.730
Yeah. David trim being era of lawrence livermore national laboratory explains.

09:49.070 --> 09:54.140
So we're saying now as Bad on thetarget. That's the way and

09:54.250 --> 09:55.080
have detected.

09:55.720 --> 09:58.620
Radiation. It's a continuesto go up.

09:59.600 --> 10:01.840
That's for red sayingit's above are.

10:02.410 --> 10:03.050
But never again.

10:03.980 --> 10:04.780
For your love all.

10:05.460 --> 10:06.680
So now we're saying.

10:07.490 --> 10:10.090
This made in a energiesback for that.

10:11.170 --> 10:11.720
Knows you.

10:12.400 --> 10:16.990
Information about four that's somethingthat by doing a wire.

10:17.810 --> 10:19.460
We have the data we can.

10:20.070 --> 10:22.550
Set in the Show.

10:23.290 --> 10:24.070
Breach back.

10:24.610 --> 10:26.150
And the way this is re.

10:26.660 --> 10:30.890
Is that was saying is that say isthat specter of it's actually

10:30.890 --> 10:35.460
going one minute count and why be closedwe're getting all the information.

10:35.960 --> 10:40.810
Um as soon as the one that is theon the spectrum is automatically

10:40.860 --> 10:42.460
posted on observer of the

10:43.940 --> 10:47.480
Observer's reviewing the data atthe operation center would pour

10:47.480 --> 10:51.190
in a in among subject matter expertsand advise the boring team

10:51.270 --> 10:52.770
on how to handle a search.

10:53.780 --> 10:58.080
So off entry for the results sunday.He met he's board made to

10:58.080 --> 11:01.420
serious of the maneuvers troops aredifferent detection. Results.

11:04.290 --> 11:06.910
That's guinea traininglike the same size.

11:08.010 --> 11:08.490
Yeah yeah.

11:09.710 --> 11:10.740
No greater than that.

11:11.750 --> 11:12.650
The on and off.. Good.

11:13.370 --> 11:23.200
Good. He is.

11:23.900 --> 11:25.790
Researchers can after the tax savings.

11:26.330 --> 11:30.030
Not just because of what this goand have a name gotten that

11:30.030 --> 11:32.800
because of that a ability of communicatingwithout the need for

11:32.800 --> 11:34.160
the director's surges.

11:35.000 --> 11:39.180
Until recently doing so electronicallyhas the same as the tunnel.

11:40.100 --> 11:44.060
However after numerous tests cordedskin is team have shown and

11:44.060 --> 11:44.680
is possible.

11:45.770 --> 11:49.270
The diver using a wireless devicecan send messages and pictures

11:49.300 --> 11:52.120
via bluetooth to the hardware itcomputer sing here in the bread

11:52.120 --> 11:56.190
box the Billy contains a computerhard wired to the second beer

11:56.220 --> 11:57.060
placed under. Water.

12:00.390 --> 12:03.200
Operations tech you dishor side or wrote.

12:03.860 --> 12:06.750
Printed messages and picturesto the hard wired device.

12:08.350 --> 12:11.110
The hardware devise ways tothe underwater computer.

12:11.690 --> 12:15.430
You cannot compare sends the datavia bluetooth to the diverse

12:15.530 --> 12:16.580
wireless device.

12:18.170 --> 12:19.870
The method one workingor versus well.

12:20.850 --> 12:23.980
It's such a method were perfectand with little to no lacked

12:23.980 --> 12:27.360
a and it would significantly Aviandecreasing search times and

12:27.360 --> 12:29.000
increasing safety for. Divers.

12:30.930 --> 12:35.010
On this occasion. They also planto test ellie seawater which

12:35.010 --> 12:39.020
can eliminate in tranted datasimultaneously the basis.

12:39.020 --> 12:42.870
This electoral luminescence. Oh wehave going on here is an elvy

12:42.870 --> 12:47.260
see it's a light and beating capacitor.So you can't very very

12:47.260 --> 12:52.020
long links that are deploy able quicklyeasily to put a defended

12:52.020 --> 12:55.840
pathway downer to get people theFairy lots of people out a long

12:55.840 --> 12:57.270
and has my situation.

12:57.830 --> 13:00.820
And they can run along the line intheir responders can therefore

13:00.820 --> 13:03.170
work on the people that are downto truly need their help.

13:03.990 --> 13:08.330
Another advantage to this is thatany form of data homme control

13:08.330 --> 13:12.400
power convinced can be sent downthe middle of this like because

13:12.400 --> 13:15.070
the light lives in a cylindricalaspect around.

13:17.300 --> 13:22.220
A message of march the and what areyour new worse cases of technology

13:22.650 --> 13:23.930
to quickly detect a threat.

13:25.580 --> 13:27.830
A land of me would be used them back.

13:29.630 --> 13:32.780
An underwater are being will beuse check outside of the hall.

13:34.880 --> 13:38.350
Another effective tool is the camerarape germania him and the jar.

13:38.970 --> 13:43.600
This is an image to candle of acobalt 60 and cesium one 37 and

13:43.600 --> 13:47.300
a your cranium source and in aboutthree to five minutes we're

13:47.300 --> 13:50.180
but localize the cesium local boss60 because they are fairly

13:50.180 --> 13:54.290
high energy camera is it's a fairlyact radioactive sources this

13:54.290 --> 13:58.490
city rainy and we have a love liesin about 10 minutes this south

13:58.490 --> 14:02.180
for asa lets us collector at denisefactual information as well

14:02.180 --> 14:03.800
and from this we can actually see.

14:04.370 --> 14:08.120
The unique a radiation from eachof the isotopes for conceived

14:08.120 --> 14:10.070
and cesium one from southernalong with this.

14:10.580 --> 14:12.460
To to the some radium ones us. Wow.

14:21.830 --> 14:24.770
Us coastguard service. The boringteam and make their way through

14:24.770 --> 14:28.310
the vessel along the way memberstested communication system

14:28.630 --> 14:32.330
using a Tiber go masham angry laceplaced at key points for of

14:32.330 --> 14:32.660
the ship.

14:33.530 --> 14:37.690
In the engine from david trim being ahides the radioactive material.. So.

14:39.740 --> 14:43.870
So. Two years.

14:45.320 --> 14:45.690
We're. Here.

14:48.230 --> 14:51.460
Who brought in here. Was.

14:52.430 --> 14:57.540
Cielo. The boarding team arrivesand then dinner and attempts

14:57.540 --> 14:58.620
to contact the. Bridge.

15:04.830 --> 15:08.290
Boarding team is test the room with a ratinga private identification. Device.

15:10.970 --> 15:12.300
They get an instant response.. Area.

15:13.670 --> 15:26.180
Area. But they've trouble meringuedown where the threat is located.

15:27.030 --> 15:30.050
Notably the burnley colored containersJanette stand out among

15:30.050 --> 15:32.440
the various warrant scienceand kanaval quentin to.

15:32.980 --> 15:35.640
The nuclear material is effectivelyhidden in plain. Sight.

15:47.190 --> 15:48.430
Many years of. Her.

15:54.100 --> 15:57.670
In any case surging by side isnot the primary objective.

15:58.570 --> 16:02.490
The boring team must fall their traininguse the device and ascertain

16:02.490 --> 16:06.320
location the radioactive materialbecause the cesium and cobalt

16:06.380 --> 16:07.530
or so near to each other.

16:08.210 --> 16:11.770
Are radion implied identificationthat I skits back on readings.

16:12.510 --> 16:15.800
From being a rare shares to tamea paddy use their but them to

16:15.800 --> 16:16.600
detect the threat.

16:17.500 --> 16:20.710
They share somehow a smoke detectorcan produce a false positive.

16:21.710 --> 16:24.550
He shows the location of theseason them call ball.

16:26.960 --> 16:30.620
What for desk is tame as a tactica stolen next to face it.

16:31.540 --> 16:34.970
Are gaining the interest of localand parchment and the department

16:34.970 --> 16:36.080
of homeland security.

16:36.670 --> 16:40.100
It appears such maritime interdictionoperations were mainly

16:40.100 --> 16:41.330
crucial learning. Tool.

17:02.750 --> 17:06.800
Men 80 for the first time will deploya solid state laser aboard USS.

17:06.830 --> 17:10.900
Ponce officials said a laser programthe central to deliver advanced

17:10.900 --> 17:14.710
capabilities the for deployed forcesbecause it compliments kinetic

17:14.710 --> 17:17.290
weapons to create a betterplayer protection.

17:18.050 --> 17:22.340
From sign space in to science factsfrom dance clubs in CD players

17:22.340 --> 17:26.760
to guided missiles and Reagan andlasers to change our way of life.

17:27.320 --> 17:31.710
A great advances also come with greathurdles away the recession

17:31.760 --> 17:35.160
than can had been working to solvethe technologies won the tasting

17:35.290 --> 17:37.040
one for faster explains more.

17:38.390 --> 17:39.640
Amy's keys come.

17:40.280 --> 17:42.640
Research assistant professorin the physics department.

17:43.280 --> 17:47.310
And part of armies church is lookingat how weather impacts performance

17:47.310 --> 17:51.530
of a high energy laser a laser isn'tdevice that produces a beam

17:51.530 --> 17:56.020
of coherent mites ants different thanand your your typical flashlight

17:56.020 --> 18:00.160
in the sense that that beam of lightdoes is highly focused and

18:00.190 --> 18:03.720
it's an a pure way like the purecolor. So high nation laser

18:03.810 --> 18:07.630
is seen basic principles of of alow power laser that might have

18:07.630 --> 18:11.130
a DVD player. So you have taxindrinking medium that you have

18:11.130 --> 18:16.140
to energizing someone a Annie producea I didn't Bemis um of

18:16.140 --> 18:21.410
lights back to hannah's many kilowattsof power in that the light beam.

18:21.790 --> 18:25.580
So let's set powerful enough to burnmaterials to damage materials

18:25.610 --> 18:29.140
melts materials to get to that'swhy we're reconstruct damaging

18:29.220 --> 18:33.110
a target we asked to send that lightbeam from the ship are from

18:33.110 --> 18:33.800
this source.

18:34.340 --> 18:37.170
To the target and self of coursethe target can be some distance

18:37.170 --> 18:37.920
away from the shut.

18:38.870 --> 18:42.090
Propagate that light throughhere to the atmosphere.

18:42.710 --> 18:46.100
And depending on what the weatherconditions are a could be a

18:46.100 --> 18:50.420
very turbulent day which tends to causethe laser beam to break out.

18:50.970 --> 18:54.280
Or it could be a hazy day whichcauses a light to scatter way

18:54.280 --> 18:57.620
from the core of a laser beam.There's defy condition second

18:57.620 --> 19:01.650
degrade the the laser for reachesthe target and it's important

19:01.650 --> 19:06.250
to understand Halle asian degradesand alan might be that if

19:06.250 --> 19:10.010
you send a laser beam througha piece of of wavy glass.

19:10.570 --> 19:14.670
That can call a as they'd the beamitself to had breakup and

19:14.670 --> 19:18.640
the and uh the deflecting a differentangles. It's I glasses

19:18.640 --> 19:21.550
a little that cloudy benita neckand scattered the beam as it's

19:21.580 --> 19:24.910
going to that piece of glass andhemisphere acts much the same

19:24.910 --> 19:26.840
way except as over much wanted distance.

19:27.470 --> 19:31.220
Yeah atmosphere can cause you tobe in the wonder Nixon Casa

19:31.220 --> 19:34.290
being the break up anti process.Scatter the light and solar

19:34.290 --> 19:38.140
research has done is care drives laserin different weather conditions

19:38.140 --> 19:41.300
in different levels of turbulence differentlevels of pains different

19:41.300 --> 19:44.880
levels of rain and across a widespectrum of wave links.

19:45.410 --> 19:49.690
To determine what the effect a rangeof the seas weapon systems are.

19:50.270 --> 19:52.330
And so we nell in tactile apes.

19:52.970 --> 19:56.050
How much power we me how much energywe need to deposit in order

19:56.050 --> 20:01.130
to melt a certain by among theceri all and than analyze that

20:01.130 --> 20:04.060
laser system any weather conditionsto see whether crosses that

20:04.230 --> 20:05.130
pressure all about.

20:05.870 --> 20:09.380
So one of the things every let thatwas how turbulence effects

20:09.380 --> 20:10.370
laser performance.

20:10.940 --> 20:16.060
In cell in this plot here Han via.Why access we had the radius

20:16.100 --> 20:18.980
of a laser on apartheid hadarranger five kilometers.

20:19.700 --> 20:22.580
And as red line represents thesort of melt special about we

20:22.580 --> 20:26.390
need to exceed in order to affectnecessary damage on a target.

20:27.200 --> 20:30.820
On words all access. We have the waythe wings of the laser system

20:30.820 --> 20:32.990
and we can see a different waylinks are affected differently

20:32.990 --> 20:33.920
by the turbulence.

20:34.540 --> 20:37.540
In a different levels of color ofthe light or represent different

20:37.540 --> 20:40.430
premiums levels a light blue representsfor a strong train lines

20:40.710 --> 20:43.720
in the dark blue representsvery weak trim lines.

20:44.420 --> 20:48.340
So we can see that ended party rang afive kilometers an strong turbulence.

20:48.340 --> 20:50.270
We don't exceed that mel fresh old.

20:50.900 --> 20:54.540
Which means that when strong turbulenceconditions prevailed

20:54.540 --> 20:57.200
the winnie go allow the targetsto be a little bit closer to

20:57.200 --> 20:59.100
the laser system beforewe engage that power.

20:59.730 --> 21:03.140
One of the things that we neededto do more to has to make the

21:03.140 --> 21:06.500
performance of a laser system and ifweather conditions was developer

21:06.500 --> 21:10.130
own code habit allow us to skinacross millions of different

21:10.310 --> 21:12.010
weather parameters laser crackers.

21:12.770 --> 21:16.590
To order the do that we needed defiantbut sort of weather conditions

21:16.590 --> 21:20.230
he wanted to analyze and a minithat determine what the the at

21:20.370 --> 21:23.180
the optical properties of the atmosphereare intimate plug it

21:23.180 --> 21:26.550
into our code and skin a classicin millions of different fram

21:26.550 --> 21:28.950
riders to estimate thevarious. So uh.

21:29.510 --> 21:32.550
Figures and therefore afford salacioussystem. So one of the

21:32.550 --> 21:36.690
advantages that lasers bring the tableis there per cost engagement

21:36.690 --> 21:40.080
is very low self their their electricweapons as long as you

21:40.080 --> 21:43.270
can provide the necessary electricalpower to the laser system

21:43.270 --> 21:45.230
been essentially havean infinite magazine.

21:46.020 --> 21:49.390
So this is of course a huge advantageto uh engaging various

21:49.390 --> 21:52.780
targets numerous targets relativeto conventional weapons which

21:52.920 --> 21:56.100
I'm a of course are quiteexpensive per engaged in.

21:56.730 --> 22:00.240
Another gary shed that lasers prayingover a conventional weapons

22:00.270 --> 22:04.360
is that they're highly focused ofprecise whereas image a weapons

22:04.360 --> 22:08.470
such as bullets into the spreadout and sarah and their trial

22:08.470 --> 22:09.310
important target.

22:09.860 --> 22:14.430
And uh and that really allows assistedPOS. It that we still

22:14.430 --> 22:18.660
in here she into a very small veryvery precise sharia to mother

22:18.660 --> 22:21.150
made a attractive feature lasers.

22:21.650 --> 22:25.860
Is that it delivers that youthful energyessentially instantaneously

22:25.890 --> 22:27.050
side at the speed of light.

22:27.830 --> 22:30.920
So what that means they are andit is as difficult for targets

22:30.920 --> 22:35.100
to maneuver out um of that passa that the full energy becomes

22:35.130 --> 22:38.860
a good that energy is deliveredinstantaneously. So what I five

22:38.860 --> 22:42.050
typically interesting about laserphysics in general is is a

22:42.050 --> 22:47.720
wide variety of technologies thatcan be used to create a laser.

22:48.000 --> 22:52.280
So you can have a guess outstaylaser which uses a solid piece

22:52.280 --> 22:54.450
of glass are crystal tutoring alike.

22:55.150 --> 22:59.150
Or you can you is a 's in a conductorin the case of a a suni

22:59.150 --> 23:00.000
connector laser.

23:00.530 --> 23:03.360
Breaking news free electrons in acase for free like from injured.

23:04.090 --> 23:08.940
Almost technologies produce a high qualitycoherent beam of laser beam.

23:09.510 --> 23:12.850
But the jerry to in many differentways this are rich body of

23:12.850 --> 24:25.930
physics associated with each ofthose kinds of techno. He..
