Again, if they used it how come there were no fires. As I pointed out, its one thing to heat up a paper thin missile casing and ignite the fuel, its another to heat up structural steel that thick and NOT cause fires in the internal structure???


You just said size doesn't matter, now you are worried about the size of the metal on the exterior of the WTC. I don't understand your intentions, or your way of thought.

Total inability to prove not withstanding, lets say they have all three. ill even buy into your agrument that its related to environmental issues and the adaptive mirror is a bust when it comes to quelling atmospheric blooming.: Why be so close in as I stated? Why orbit around the structure. Surely if you say the ABL in flight you would notice right?


GBL = ground based laser = en.wikipedia.org...

SBL = space based laser = www.fas.org...

ABL = airborne laser

These are all real. Actually its was Ronald Regans idea to make a SBL.
en.wikipedia.org...

The problem with lasers, is that the atmosphere (clouds, fog, and other stuff) weakens the laser over a distance.

The reason one would need to get closer, is to make the laser more powerfull!

Such a simple explaination.

Why would they need to heat the structure at all?


Because the WTC's were designed to withstand the impact of a jet. If they truely wanted the WTC's to fall, they would softwen the exterior so the jet can penetrate the exterior and mess up the interior. I believe the jet used had explosives inside of it.

Not only that, but, if you look closely at the video I have in my original post, you can see the "tracking laser" disappears when the jet hits, then you see the explosion, then the "tracking laser" comes back..

It is my opinion that they fired the full potential of the laser exactly when the "tracking laser" disappeared, when the explosion starts.

Ive never in my life seen a "bird" of this size, (12 feet?), fly in a perfectly straight downward line, ESPECIALLY after a huge explosion.



You would think the explosion would scare the bird into flying another direction. You would think the bird's flight doesn't look like it is moving to the ribs and gaps of both WTC and the other building. Also, you would think if it was a bird, it wouldnt shape itself to the smoke and fire.

Also, only 1 bird? Such a huge distance and you can only see 1 large bird?

What are the chances that this "bird" happens to disappear right where the tip of the wing of the jet hits the WTC, then magically reappear in the position it was previously traveling?

No, it cant be a bird.

Maybe this flash is actually a freak accurance of the "invisible" laser becoming visible heat?



We all know, when you aim a gun's sights, you aim above the target so the barrel of the gun is pointed at the target. Maybe the "tracking laser" was aimed at the wing tip of the jet, so that the actual body of the jet would get hit by the laser?

Maybe there was a smaller version of the laser on the nose of the jet that hit??

No you said:


Besides, I don't think a laser of this size acts in any way close to "basic physics".


Implying that a larger laser can defy physics?

As I was trying to point out and aparently failed in your case is that the structure of a missile casing is realtivly thin. Weight is everything in a missile be it an ICBM or a scud. Logicaly it dictates that its much easier to cause a failure in a thin object than a thick no? Compared to the WTC towers a missile esp a balistic missile which the ABL is designed to go after is pretty small eh? Thus easier for a given output to destroy. the laser in question would have to dwell on the structure for some time (The ABL can shoot 30-40 times eh?) assuming that the steel structure would act as a heat sink. Also, the glass would not be able to withstand that degree of thermal stress and would have shattered (im assuming) prior to the jets impact.


While theater ballistic missiles typically have steel skins of roughly 3-4mm thickness, a liquid fueled ICBM will probably have a skin made of 2mm thick aluminum. (This presumes it used structure similar to that of the Russian SS-18 missile, a very large two-stage liquid fueled ICBM.) Thus, damaging the ICBM skin will require less energy.
www.fas.org...


Are you inplying that the core structure of the WTC is that thin?


These are all real.


Real theories but very little evidence that they progressed beyond the intial research stage. The ABL is by far the furthest along and it has yet to demonstrate anything of real value YET.


The reason one would need to get closer, is to make the laser more powerfull! Such a simple explaination.


Yes but the system was designed with engagments in the 200 km range as noted here:


The ABL will first see the missile plume several hundred kilometers away using its infrared seekers. Its two low power illuminating lasers will then determine the target range and get initial information about the atmosphere between the ABL and the missile. They will then track the missile and provide aiming data to the ABL.
www.fas.org...


Even 40 km away would have put it over the water. Yet you seem to think that this oddly shaped 747 was loitering over downtown Manhattan? Any you just noticed it now?


Because the WTC's were designed to withstand the impact of a jet. If they truely wanted the WTC's to fall, they would softwen the exterior so the jet can penetrate the exterior and mess up the interior.


But the exterior of the WTC was a facade and the core was responsable for the gravity loads


The structural system, deriving from the I.B.M. Building in Seattle, is impressively simple. The 208-foot wide facade is, in effect, a prefabricated steel lattice, with columns on 39-inch centers acting as wind bracing to resist all overturning forces; the central core takes only the gravity loads of the building. www.civil.usyd.edu.au...


So the plane should have and did have no problem getting through the inner perimeter. If the F-4 can power through all that concrete eh? I ask again why would the facade need to be heated up?

and again, why no sign of fire, windows blasting outward ) or inward for that matter secondary to the thermal stress and the actual impact of the laser etc?


Again the tracking laser stays on for the engagement it would not turn off then the blast of the main. If you did that last milisecond correction could not be made and the motion of the A/c would make it impossible to dwell on the target.

YES, "BASIC" physics. Keyword there...

What I was trying to point out and apparently failed, is that SIZE DOESN'T MATTER. We do have lasers that can cut through steel. Are you implying we don't??

No I am implying that the laser is more powerful than they tell you.

Thats because you are a civilian and do not have the full information. When you can prove that it has not passed research stage, then maybe your thoughts hold water. At this current day, I have video of working laser weapons. They are real. I actually have video proof of Rumsfeld talking about direct energy weapons, and how "normal" procedure for new weapons is to develop, test, employ. Yet he also says sometimes they use things even if they are only in "test" stage.

If you can find the full video of this:
video.google.com...

You would be supprized by their answer.

I knew this information for ages, I just decided to tell you all NOW. Because it is time.

Hence why they needed a jet to penitrate the exterior so the explosives in the jet can ruin the interior core. Come on man, think harder.

LOL! The exterior of WTC is made of steel. I have yet seen aluminum pass through steel with pure kinetic energy. B.T.W. The F-4 did NOT power through all the concrete.. it disintegrated on impact, nice try though, I now see your intentions on this subject. Let me tell you that the US Government isn't as "innocent" as you believe.

Windows will not "blast outward or inward" in heat, actually it will just melt the glass and drip down since glass is a liquid. Also, when you heat up steel, it doesn't just catch on fire, it warms up and looses its strength. It could loose its strength with no visual signs...

See your imagination is expecting "hollywood" and not "reality".

Are you an expert on this weapon????

How do you know the "tracking laser" doesn't shut off so all the power could be used on the main laser? If I were to create a tracking laser system, I would only need to use the laser for the first few minutes to get the calculations of the targets future position. Once I calculate the future position of the target, I could shut if off, and fire the main laser at that position.

This is all irrelevant anyway, because now all you are doing (the mod of this forum I might add) is derailing this conversation by asking questions that you nor anybody without a security clearance could possibly know.

You are debating about something (the way the laser works) without first knowing yourself how it works. Its classic straw man if you ask me.

Hmmm a laser cutting 10mm steel. I don't see this laser "concentrating" on a spot to heat it up. Looks like an instant cut to me...



Here is a laser cutting AK-47 parts.. Go figure..



There is no question about the power of lasers. The question is, what can they use it for?
