How would a light sabre work?

Not sure, but you can't have physical resistance using light, like during Luke Skywalker's duel with Darth Vader, because light radiation isn't dense enough. Maybe through some sort of "magic" you could concentrate an immense amount of energy into a one spot, enough to provide physical resistance.

Who knows where the use of Polaritons may lead when gestation techniques become more refined for convergence with other laser/particle beam weapons tech' and otherwise, being developed.

IMO. There's huge potentials for this, even a shield against solar energetic particles in the future, perhaps in time for the magnetospheric inversion, possibly, methinks. Not just tanglible light which will make lightsabres possible.

What NewSci' is outlining there has a huge potential in development!


The future is already happening.
