"The trickiest part is that we had no idea how to do what we do today," he commented in an interview, giving special credit to the development of an active system to isolate the laser beams and mirrors from seismic and other outside disturbances.
|
|
Such a disturbance, Dr. Weiss reasoned, would alter the length along which one of those laser beams traveled, putting the two lasers out of phase with each other by the time they both reached the detector — a difference that could yield a measurable interference pattern.
|
|
Following an idea put forward by Robert Forward, a physicist at Hughes Aircraft, Dr. Drever and his colleagues set out to do it a different way, using laser beams bouncing between precisely positioned mirrors — to detect the squeeze and stretch of a passing wave.

Powerful laser beams from Earth would then push the sails, propelling the little nanocraft up to 100 million mph -- that's 20% of light speed, far faster than today's spacecraft can travel -- to Alpha Centauri, where they would collect images and other data and beam them back to Earth.

A team of six mechanical engineering students at the University of Victoria in British Columbia has developed a scarecrow for the 21st century, and it's got more in common with the Death Star than it does with Dorothy's pal from The Wizard of Oz. So in the future, farmers may be using laser beams to scare off geese who come to nosh on their crops.
