IR or near IR has nothing to do with the color blue.
100s of kw range? BWAAHHAHAAHAHAHAHHA
Oh my god... does he not know how to do math?
Also... 1 mile long? Then its not even close to orbit. Low Earth Orbig is 1,200 miles from the surface.
And now they're talking about 1 megawatt? Make up your mind video.
And how is he doing his math?
OH I see now.
He's doing selective copying...
https://www.misterrobots.com/lasersSo the video is taking alot of assumptions not in the original calculations.
Like the whole burning is either a piece of paper or dry grass.
It would take 8.8 seconds of CONTINUIOUS ENERGY to melt 1 alumunum wheel.
And as is pointed out
"Most likely severe fire temperatures could also cause liquification of aluminum allow car wheels"
Basically... the whole video is bunked.
Of course, this video contradicts your assumption that its a US decivce using Vortex energy.
So... maybe you can stick to just one script?
