Frickin’ laser beams
The ever amusing Xinhua news service (which I only know about because Google News picks up its stories all the time) has a story about laser beams being directed into airline pilots’ eyes.
This is fantastic. Welcome to the future, a future populated by laser-wielding terrorists and killer robot police.
I guess they’re still investigating, but… where did these lasers come from? The ground? Other planes? Passengers? Were they lasers as in “laser pointer” or lasers as in “industrial argon laser”?
Weird.
