Journal 16: Busy all weekend, I decided to relax in my free time by playing one of my video games. Upon attempting to attack my enemy's base my forces were decimated by sets of "prism towers". Amazingly, what they do is concentrate the light received from the sun and amplify it to the point of immense power that when they reflect the now amplified light it is able to burn through and melt objects. Like the prisms we saw in physics, these prism towers reflect the white light coming in, put instead of breaking up the different colors the towers instead keep it as white light, somehow intensifying it so that the light becomes a weapon. In addition multiple prism towers can reflect light off from one another, further amplifying the light as well as carrying the light across long distances via a line of reflecting prism towers. Moreover, in the game there are mobile units called prism tanks that are able to cause destruction on the go using the amplified white light as a conduit for the towers, either charging them up or having the towers charge it up, with this, the tank can travel with a steady stream of reflected light from the towers. Wow. Yup that might just be the future in light technology applied to future weaponry. (the prism towers are the things with the white rectangular panels on them btw).
