of proud of this it's a little something I just kind of fool around with for my own amusements
it's a mirror and what we do we generate kind of a low level pressure power intensity laser
and when we do that we can shine it into that mirror and then it bounces off a mirror over

then when it hits the sunlight because of the optic effect of that through the Spectrum it
goes straight up into the sky hits a mirror on a building then it goes up to a satellite Frank
a satellite NASA helped with that satellite God bless you Frank goes up to a satellite and from
there it travels all the way to California to Los Angeles to CBS on the west coast here let

goes like that okay out the door up the building up to the side watch this dude
