New Scientist Tech - Breaking News - Twin-mirror laser-weapon relay hits the spot
They involved firing a laser with an output power of just under 1 kilowatt at the relay system from a distance of about 3 kilometres. The laser was then successfully redirected to a target a further 3 km from the relay. ...
goal is to develop a high-altitude mirror system that could redirect powerful laser beams at targets beyond the direct line-of-sight of the laser's source ...
The input mirror collects light from the laser and then directs it through an instrument that detects and corrects for changes caused by atmospheric perturbations.
