Developing tactics and techniques for lasers and similar spacecraft weapon systems.

Warfare has existed since the dawn of humankind. Our most devastating weapons and strategies were born in times of drastic change and uncertainty. Never has that been more true than today. While they might liberate us from the need for projectiles, our initial laser weapons remain relatively weak despite their huge energy needs, and thus it is critical that we evolve the technology behind them. These rays, made either of extremely intense light or highly focused particle beams, will circumvent traditional armor and burn organic matter. More than anything, this is a matter of efficiency - less heat and less dissipation over distance means harder-hitting impacts. The particle cannons and combat laser systems that we believe further research into energy weapons will birth may drastically change the landscape of warfare - not only in space, but also here on Earth.
