Can the light saber be made?

damn man thats great, i never thought of that, your idea makes my idea look like child's play!!!

Is there a laser type beam that is powerful enough to but through things?

If so perhaps it would be possible to angle two of these beams to meet about 4 feet from the tip of your handle?

Then maybe use the principle of constructive and destructive interference to stop the "blade"?

That is of course if you get passed the miniturization of the power source.

Anything is possible. Our dreams actually drive invention. I know of a guy that did a paper on this concept. Many of todays toys and gadgets were dreamed up in sci-fi books and novels. Literature and imagination drive reality and progress.

What if you make a 'ring' of lasers on the outside of the blade pointed straight up, and aim another 'ring' of lasers on the inside of this cilinder to cross the other lasers at a specific distance from the hilt?
These lasers should be set so that they'd both deflect towards the middle of the blade, where the hilt will magnetically pull the energy back inside of it by the usage of a narrow magnetic/gravitic field to recharge it's own energy supply.
That way the saber would lose little to no energy when no action is going on and only lose energy when it hits something.

They are already thinking of creating micro-black holes by bumping matter into eachother very fast, so why not use those?

Downsides:
-You'd still not be able to hit anything mirror-like.
-You'll have to charge the saber once in a while

I wrote up an idea, for the engineering of an actual lightsaber; however, until I post the information, I found a picture which may be relevant:

it is very possiball to create a lightsaber. just not made out of "laser" but plasma. it is impossiball to heat light up to that degree of heat to cut through things so quick. also humans can not harness light to limit the length of the saber. plasma can be harnessed to limit the length of the saber. same with the blaster pistols in star wars, plasma not laser.
in space shuttles they are replacing the windows with larger thiner and stronger plasma widows. i hope i helped you guys to realize not laser but plasma!

It's not possible right now but it will be, I've been looking up on how to build one and there are several teams working on the Lightsaber, one person claims he made one but I won't believe him unless he posts up a video, he says it's not full scale though, the biggest problem in making a Lightsaber is getting the Laser to stop. In order to do that you need to generators in your lightsaber, so the laser can stop, sorry, I'm not an expert on this, I've just been reading, I'll let you guys know if a real one is made.

E-mail this dude, he is the guy who claimed to of made a real one:

Hope this helps a little, see ya

If anyone makes a Lightsaber first it probably will be you, can you keep in touch with me, I really want to know if you succeed, here is my E-mail:

Read the whole thread and you’ll see that he didn’t.


Funny thread though

Edit to add:

ROFLMAO

There is a thread already posted about this subject..im sure there is lots of info on that www.abovetopsecret.com...
