Chinese scientists claim to have made a breakthrough in a real-life “Death Star” energy beam weapon, according to reports.
The new high-powered microwave weapon combines many small electromagnetic waves to make one large focused laser beam — much like the Death Star from “Star Wars,” which destroyed planets by firing a particle beam comprised of several smaller sources.
The breakthrough is in the process of “ultra-high time precision synchronization,” which permits the beams from joining together and focusing on a single location, according to the South China Morning Post.
The Chinese research team is now able to generate precision amongst the smaller lasers that exceed the accuracy of atomic clocks, according to the Independent.
