Now you only need: - Some ultrasound emitters to control the flame shape, especially to create an endpoint that does not look like a flame - A solid retractable core that withstands the temperatures, so the blades can actually clash with each other (and not just pass through).
@TheScarletSlayer Рік тому
Give it another 10 years they'll get there eventually.
@EGarrett01 Рік тому
I thought about it and that's a great idea. They don't need the core to be as thick as the saber since it's not for appearances, the flame/plasma around it will do that. It needs to be completely heat resistant (apparently tungsten is the best for that, though I don't know if that's an option) and tough enough to clash with things.
@jcarry5214 Рік тому
Gyroscopic magnetic containment field accomplishes both those things.
@thelastprussian6491 Рік тому
@@EGarrett01 no tungsten will burn away, it need to be way more heat tolerable
@arsyack Рік тому
@@thelastprussian6491 this needs a coil core with magnetic field, to prevent plasma of touching the solid core. Or a metal blade with electromagnetic wave emitters (for example, UHF), those destabilize the crystal cells of hard materials (with resonance) on the blade's way, and ionize the air to create a plasma coating around the blade, which is held in the magnetic field. Like a power sword of Warhammer 40 000.

I can see where this is going, more propellant to send the plasma to the general saber length, only problem is thermal dynamics won't allow you to do this safely. I think the hilt would catch fire/melt and you would use up fuel pretty fast. It shows me that a real working lightsaber with a magnetic field, proper heat and a strong enough power source is not within the realms of physics as we know it.

My guess is that they're looking into disrupting surrounding airflow with their own built-in fans on the hilt somehow?

In Star Wars Legends Lore, way before the Skywalker Saga (like 10.000 years before Galactic Empire) the very first lightsabers actually looked like this and worked like Hacksmiths version. Jedi Knights had a PowerCell attached to their belts. The lightsaber was then connected with a powercable to the powercell on the Belt. Later the kyber crystal which gives power to the lightsaber was redsigned and added to the hilt itself. Thats the lightsaber we know from the movies.

you should try to find a heat resistant material that is possibly see through and make a layer around the light saber that can hold the flame into a compact shape so the light sabers can clash together and whatnot and is retractable with the fire so that it actually looks like a real saber.

@theHacksmith Рік тому
An actual lightsaber doesn't exist -- so how "it works" is really irrelevant because it was dreamt up without thinking about physics 😜 Which means however we figure it out, is how it works 💪
@KitZunekaze Рік тому
Unobtainium is the crux of a lightsaber working. But it was dreamt up by using the idea of LASERs. Which is that when you apply a strong electrical current to certain gemstones, they emit radiation (light.) Star wars suggested "What if there was a crystal that produced plasma when stimulated, instead of light?" So until there is a gemstone that emits plasma when stimulated by electricity (Physically impossible, because plasma is a state-change of matter.) The rest of 'how a lightsaber works' is basically the same principal of what they're doing here. The other key ingredient being a magnetic force-field... which is probably also physically impossible. But the force field is used to create a barrier to 'contain' the plasma inside of. That gives the saber it's shape. But that's where your suggestion might be worth looking at. The next step for this project might be ways to 'contain' the blade in the right shape. Force fields obviously aren't possible, but maybe other ways to contain or shape the plasma-stream?
