Hunting the Elements is a video that we have been watching in IPC. Before watch all I knew was that they range from low reaction to highly reactive. Now I've learned that the body is made of 6 elements and that some elements have 6 electrons and others have 8 so when combined they calm each other down. In the future I want to dive into the more scientific stuff

Directed Energy in Naval Warfare

DEWO is an organization focused on the study of directed energy specificly in warfare. They have made high powered lasers, microwaves, and even a plasma gun. Starting with the lasers the DEWO made and laser that works like a long distance 4.4 Km to be precise taser. It helped the Navy to destroy 9 unmanned aircrafts which might not seem like a lot but, that is 9 less things we have to worry about. Now on to high powered microwaves. The vigilant eagle is a HPM stationed on top of Hum-V's that takes the water inside a person and essentially boils them from the inside out. That may seem gruesome but think, if someone was coming at you with guns that could turn you into human Swiss cheese you would want them to stop and they aren't gonna stop for please and thank you. On to CIED's and IED's for those of you who don't know are Improvised Explosive Devices. DEWO use directed energy to be able to detect IED's using thermal waves that they can detect the IED. Now here is the fun stuff PEP's. PEP's are guns that shoot plasma and upon contact they go BOOM and who dosen't love explosions. I'm going to end with a few words. GO NAVY!

Reflection

Light can be a helpful tool and make fun stuff like FIRE! With reflection light goes the other way and can be manipulated and makes heat. With a parabola light hits the parabola and focuses on one focal point. It can reach up to over 530° and easily boil water. With a convex mirror you can spread light out with to get a larger area. With a plane its what comes in is what goes out. The light hits the mirror and bounce straight back. Light can go a many of ways due to reflection. That is the coolest part of reflection, you can control light.
