Loading ...Directed energy weapons DO exist.
They are all GROUND BASED systems as they take a LOT of power to concentrate into that beam.
For that very reason, Satellite based DEWeapons DO NOT exist. Smart friends and I estimate that it would take Megawatts of power to get a beam thru 185km of atmospheric attenuation to arrive on the ground with enough burning power to accomplish the ‘Lahaina wonders’. It would take a nuclear reactor in orbit to supply that much power. Such does not exist.
DEWeapons are not needed to explain the Maui fire. Most people do not understand the strange anomalies that a high wind driven firestorm can do… so they ‘make shit up’ in their imagination.
