 New laser will be powerful enough to rip apart space itself  At peak power, the fourth laser in Europe's Extreme Light Infrastructure project (or ELI) will combine ten beams into a single pulse measuring 200 petawatts. 200 petawatts is significantly more power that our entire race generates at any given moment, and in fact more total power than Earth receives from the sun.
The 200 petawatt pulses will only last 1.5 x 10^-14 second, which is about the same amount of time that it takes for light to travel from one side of a human hair to the other, if you shave the hair down by 90%.
The hope is that a laser this powerful might actually be able to tear apart the vacuum of space-time itself, revealing the matter and antimatter underneath.Source: http://dvice.com/archives/2011/04/new-laser-will.php

Re: New laser will be powerful enough to rip apart space its  jackal. i wonder how they got the idea, that this laser can do anything to the universe. compared to other objects in space its still pretty weak even if they could fire it longer. they just need an excuse for why they spend all their time and money on a useless clusterlaser... how are they even going to hit space? you cannot shoot vacuum with a laser wtf.....
