Company execs say they're working on a real-life ray gun which uses femtosecond lasers – light pulses that last less than a ten-trillionth of a second – to carve conductive channels of ionized oxygen in the air. Through these channels, Ionatron's blaster supposedly sends man-made lighting bolts, frying anyone unfortunate enough to step into their path, up to 800 meters away.

The feds have given the company $12 million to chase these ray gun dreams. But good luck finding anyone in the Defense or Energy departments who will publicly endorse Ionatron's ray gun work. Or even say they're passingly familiar with it.

Picture of a “Plasma Tank”



It isn’t too much of a stretch to think this technology could be on a satellite so that the F.P. can indeed call down fire from heaven…


Revelation 13:11And I beheld another beast coming up out of the earth; and he had two horns like a lamb, and he spake as a dragon.
12And he exerciseth all the power of the first beast before him, and causeth the earth and them which dwell therein to worship the first beast, whose deadly wound was healed.
13And he doeth great wonders, so that he maketh fire come down from heaven on the earth in the sight of men,
14And deceiveth them that dwell on the earth by the means of those miracles which he had power to do in the sight of the beast; saying to them that dwell on the earth, that they should make an image to the beast, which had the wound by a sword, and did live.
15And he had power to give life unto the image of the beast, that the image of the beast should both speak, and cause that as many as would not worship the image of the beast should be killed.

That's exactly what it sounds like to me. If they can do this from a tank, then why not from a satellite?

So, there is a transition from the technological to the miraculous? If he can do the miraculous then how "powerful" would technology seem? Pretty mundane if you ask me.

BTW: the picture looks like an M1A2Abrams, the main battle tank of the U.S. And as far as that "plasma beam" is concerned...probably a streak photo-shopped into the original image. I guess George Lucas has ruined me for good.
