Brian, ya that is pretty cool, I have never seen that before for some reason. It would work for some things, but it just doesn't seem like a solution as you need direct line of sight, and nothing can get in the way of the beam, especially when lasers get more powerful, as they are all the time. Seems like a cool idea for solar array satellites transmitting power back down to earth, as it is much more efficient to do that than have the solar power stations on surface.
