w00t, more powerful anti-matter weaponary
Quote:Researchers fire most powerful antimatter beam ever
Scientists at North Carolina's PULSTAR nuclear reactor facility fired a positron bean five times stronger than any other ever created earlier this month, breaking a record previously held by a team in Germany. The antimatter device -- which apparently looks like a Star Trek warp reactor -- was developed as part of a two year project by NC State, the University of Michigan, and Oak Ridge National Labs. Now that the device is working, the team is looking for practical applications for the tech, including building an "antimatter telescope," which would allow even closer observations of atomic interactions. Or they could use it to blow up the universe. You know, whatever.

Now, what would you do with such a device?

This does not bode well for Earth's survival.

Win! Just that they'll probably float upwards due to anti-gravity or anti-mass...
...and hope the Lightsabers don't collide with air, or you'll be cutting the air...
