immortalfrieza said:Actually, I remember watching a history channel special "Star Wars Tech", which tries to see just how plausible Star Wars technology is, including lightsabers. It was uploaded on Youtube, take a look: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tBW7Y1Qj94k
I saw that a while ago. they completely missed the point of "energy-sword" >:/ and instead focused ENTIRELY on why Lasers and Plasma don't work. It was still very interesting though! I recomend anyone to watch it
EDIT: the portion about plasma-windows especially, was very intriguing. that looks like promising tech on the horizon
