Laser Broom

Post by Pigeon » Thu Jun 11, 2020 1:20 pm

A laser broom is a proposed ground-based laser beam-powered propulsion system whose purpose is to sweep space debris out of the path of other artificial satellites such as the International Space Station. It would heat one side of an object enough to change its orbit and make it hit the atmosphere sooner.

Why not just use the vacuum of space?

They have tried. Vacuum is not what it used to be. I blame the aliens.

"I blame the aliens."

I don't think you understand the gravity of the situation.

You lack of space terms and references is disturbing.
