Incredible technology - the light-source works by generating droplets of molten tin, firing them through a chamber at around (IIRC) 200mph, and hitting each droplet with two laser pulses... at 50kHz.
How they achieve that using Lego is beyond me.

- stavros 2y agoI imagine it was a good joke. At least I laughed.
- danparsonson 2y agoSorry yes that last part was a joke :-)
- thecompilr 2y agoIt is crazy that it had to be explained and you feel the need to apologize for it.
- danparsonson 2y agoThank you - that's humour though isn't it? I think the best jokes start with a moment of confusion which is resolved by sudden understanding, but sometimes that understanding never arrives and then the joke doesn't land - that's partly due to the listener and partly due to the person telling the joke.
