Man: Theodore, I'd appreciate it if you would put away your new laser pointer "1960 May 16" "physics"
Cruz, the early years.
Another sleepy Monday morning.
May 16, 1960: At Hughes Research Laboratory in Malibu, California, physicist Theodore Maiman focused a high-powered flash lamp on a silver-coated ruby rod and so created the first working laser.
The laser was invented in 1960 based on mathematics from the 30s. They were in no way portable until twenty years later.
He’s trying for extra credit in physics.
He’s just beaming with pride…
Hmm, that laser device device looks familiar. I’m gonna steal this, edit the name to “Will”, and post it up in my Lost In Space groups on Facebook.
OK, 1960 we get, but 2012? Did the Boychucks transpose the numbers, or is this a repeat of an already old idea?
