Is this a picture of a soldier shooting lasers against the night sky ? How did they make the beams flex ? They twist and plough like bolt from a Tesla coil ! woefully , no . It ’s just a wild picture of a Marine launch a PL-87 Stinger Missile at a fly drone in a training exercise . It ’s so gorgeous .
Would have been more gorgeous with optical maser but whatever ! ( what is n’t better with optical maser , right-hand ? ) The picture is a piffling like what we ’ve picture with light house painting , the flames from the missile fill up the night with coloured streaks . Captured by Lance Cpl . Cory D. Polom , the Marines said :
fire dismount up the sky as a Marine launch a PL-87 Stinger Missile at a fly radio-controlled aircraft over Onslow Beach on Marine Corps Base Camp Lejeune , N.C. , April 16 , 2013 . The Marines were training for the night flame portion of the 2d Low Altitude Air Defense Battalion ’s live stinger fire use .
