Military lasers turn the Earth's atmosphere into a giant magnifying glass
The idea of using lasers to turn the Earth's atmosphere into a giant magnifying glass may sound like a fiction. However, experts believe that this can become a reality in the next 50 years.
BAE Systems came up with the idea of using lasers to create atmospheric structures that have similar properties to lenses. This idea can help to spy on the enemy as well as be able to become an shield shield to protect the plane.

The company calls the system Laser Developed Atmospheric Lens (LDAL) - a device that uses laser energy directly through a lens system. While it is only one idea, LDAL operates on known mechanisms and BAE Systems said it could build the device in 2067.

Professor Nick Colosimo, future technology and prediction expert at BAE Systems, said: "We are working with the UK's most brilliant scientific minds and we are able to incorporate novel technologies. to develop military technologies in ways that we didn't dream about in the past 5-10 years. "
This system works by simulating natural phenomena to temporarily change the Earth's atmosphere into a lens-like structure. This structural change enables this "lens" to magnify or change the direction of electromagnetic waves such as light and radio signals.
This idea has something in common with two natural phenomena - the reflection of the ionosphere and the desert illusion. By using a high-power laser and taking advantage of the physical phenomenon called "Kerr effect" to temporarily heat an atmospheric area and change the structure of this atmosphere.

The ionosphere is a natural atmospheric layer at a height of 40 miles. It can reflect radio waves, allowing people to hear radio broadcasts from miles away. The radio signal bounces off the ionosphere and bounces off, traveling very far in the air, radiating across the Earth's surface.
Desert illusions create virtual images of desert water due to the hot air near the surface that bends the light onto the eyes of people looking far away. By using these phenomena, LDAL allows aircraft sensors to collect more light from the area below the lens, providing a clearer image.

By creating small ionized atmospheric masses, the system can create a reflective structure that can block enemy lasers to protect the aircraft.
