Martian Mysteries Undercover.

Chapter fifty as on February 1971 one of the first American probes to reach the neighboring planet mars by National Aeronautics Space Administration first took place. 
Although Mars was thought to have been studied at earlier date. As in 1960 a Russian proton k rocket called 1 m and weighted 650 grams had huge antenna attached. This probe was launched in 1960 reached martian orbit although tough to be hanging out around Jupiter looking for Internet as in picture. Russian tolerance towards creators suspect safe to assume that east German Russian project. As Nasa would have studied these strange dunes shapes in early sixties under president Kennedy may he rest in peace. Today it has been revealed this amazing v-shaped dune field on Mars - which looks uncannily like the Star fleet logo from the hit television show Star Trek. It was spotted by Nasa's Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter.see the difference. 
Nasa reveals dunes on the Martian surface that look like Star Trek logo. Unusual dune field spotted by Nasa's Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter. These pictures  contains dozens of 'wingtip dunes. It may at first seem a highly illogical picture. But fear not, you can Klingon to the knowledge it really did come from the surface of Mars. The 'wingtip' dunes were spotted in a dune field in a large crater near Mawrth Vallis, on the martian surface. They bear an uncanny resemblance to the Star fleet insignia badges seen on crew members throughout the series, shown here. This image was acquired by the HiRISE camera aboard the Orbiter on Dec. 30, 2013. As in this image of a dune field in a large crater near Mawrth Vallis, some of the dunes appear to be in formation,' Nasa said it likened the formation to flying birds.

'Migratory birds and military aircraftlike during World War II often fly in a V-shaped formation,' it said.'The 'V' formation greatly boosts the efficiency and range of flying birds, because all except the first fly in the upward motion of air called upwash from the wingtip vortices of the bird ahead.' sand winds. The odd shapes were formed by a combination of weather and terrain, they said. 'For dune fields, the spacing of individual dunes is a function of sand supply, wind speed, and topography includes gravity; The dune field has dozens of the strange shapes on it.The find isn't Star Trek's first brush with the Nasa's red planet projects. Earlier this year actor William Shatner joined growing calls for Nasa to investigate the bizarre 'jelly doughnut' shaped rock on the Martian surface. As William Shatner asked Nasa about the strange Mars rock found by Opportunity via Twitter during a press conference on the Opportunity rovers latest discoveries. As asking mission controllers if they had ruled out 'Martian rock throwers' but they couldn't say it small meteorites  either 'shooting stars' instead of rain mars has granite  showers. Mission controllers responding by saying Shatner's theory was 'unlikely'. 'We've got another question from Twitter, this one from William Shatner,' NASA spokesman Guy Webster said, according to space.com. 

A star-fleet flag from the show recently auctioned at Christie's. Willaims Shatner recently took to Twitter to question Nasa about its finding on the red planet. 'He'd like to know if you've ruled out the Martian rock throwers in the case of the jelly doughnut.'Nasa later said it had solved the mystery of a 'jelly doughnut' rock that appeared on the Martian surface and says it was just a rolling stone.The white-rimmed, red centered rock caused a stir last month when it appeared in an image the rover took on January 8th.More recent images show the original piece of rock struck by the rover's wheel, slightly uphill from where Pinnacle Island, the name Nasa gave the rock, came to rest.'Once we moved Opportunity a short distance, after inspecting Pinnacle Island, we could see directly uphill an overturned rock that has the same unusual appearance,' said Opportunity Deputy Principal Investigator. Ray Arvidson of Washington University in St. Louis.'We drove over it.  We can see the track. 'That's where Pinnacle Island came from.'

High Advance Petawatt Laser System.

Chapter forty nine as new advances in laser science becomes created. 
With a particle laser installed into a lock heed star fighter the first aircraft design. To be the first generation protector its SR 72. It can travel at mach six that's equal to 4500 Mph, as it can fly comfortably in lower orbit. Space cruising brings compact design of first generation particle laser system. As it is called the High-Repetition-Rate Advanced Petawatt Laser System (HAPLS). It will emit 100,000 times more power than all the power stations in the world HAPLS is designed to ultimately generate a peak power greater than 1 petawatt (1015 or 1 quadrillion watts). Each pulse will deliver 30 joules of energy in less than 30 femtoseconds (trillionths of a second or 0.00000000000003 seconds)—the time it takes light to travel a fraction of the width of a human hair. The laser system will deliver these pulses of light at 10 hertz (10 repetitions per second).The Extreme Light Infrastructure (ELI) Beamlines project is an EU-funded lab being developed with experts from around the world, including Lawrence Livermore lab in the US, and being built in the Czech Republic. Due to be switched on by 2017, it will emit a short laser burst with an intensity of 1023 watts per square centimeter. 'ELI will become the first international laser research facility, much like a ‘CERN for laser research’, hosting some of the world’s most powerful lasers enabling a new era of unique research opportunities for users from all countries,' said Professor Wolfgang Sandner, director general of the ELI-Delivery Consortium International Association (AIBSL).
High-Repetition-Rate Advanced Petawatt Laser System (HAPLS), it will emit 100,000 times more power than all the power stations in the world. 
The system combines technologies from across Europe and around the world. It relies on a scheme referred to as 'double-chirped pulse amplification,' enabling high signal to noise in the output pulses which will seed HAPLS. It will be the most powerful laser ever created, and could give researchers incredible new insights into how the cosmos was created. Called the High-Repetition-Rate Advanced Petawatt Laser System (HAPLS), it will emit 100,000 times more power than all the power stations in the world - for a tiny fraction of a second. It has even been nicknamed the Death Star laser for its similarity to Darth Vader's laser wielding base in Star Wars.The project has been nicknamed the 'death Star' after the Star Wars craft that could blow up planets  The 'death star' laser: 
The solid-state, short-pulse laser converts the energy from the pump laser to 30-joule, 30-femtosecond pulses for a peak power exceeding 1 petawatt. The laser system measures just 4.6 meters wide and 17 meters long. 'HAPLS’s high repetition rate will make possible new scientific discoveries,' said Livermore physicist and HAPLS project manager Constantin Haefner. 'While scientists have long performed experiments with powerful single-shot lasers, they have never had an opportunity to repeat experiments at 10 times per second.' HAPLS will deliver ultra short, high-energy laser pulses for generating secondary sources of electromagnetic radiation (such as high-brightness x rays).
Accelerating charged particles (electrons, protons, ions). The laser technology will enable many applications in physics, medicine, biology, and materials science.High-Repetition-Rate Advanced Petawatt Laser System (HAPLS), it will emit 100,000 times more power than all the power stations in the world An early prototype of the system HAPLS will consist of two interconnected Livermore-designed laser systems that, when set up at ELI Beamlines, 
will require a combined space of about 4.6 by 17 meters, plus 4 square meters for the final laser pulse compressor. The first system—a diode-pumped, solid-state laser—will energize or 'pump' the second system—a chirped-pulse-amplification, short-pulse laser. Inside the Death Star: After amplification in the short-pulse laser, the chirped pulse is passed through an arrangement of diffraction gratings to produce HAPLSâ's final high-energy, high-power laser pulse. The real-life Death Star as us researchers developing laser 100,000 times more powerful than all of Earth's power stations combined. Will emit a short laser burst with an intensity of 1023 watts per square centimetre. 100,000 times more power than all the power stations in the world combined. Laser bursts will last only 1/100,000th of a billionth of a second. Laser being built by Lawrence Livermore lab
