We're a few years out from this obviously, but I think this is pretty cool.

Wow, that was awesome! I wouldn't be in the least bit surprised to hear of it being used in war zones one of these days.

That was great, thanks! Minus the ceramic component that's how I've always imagined a functional lightsaber.
Michio Kaku is incredible, I never knew he had that series. Now I know what I'm doing with the rest of my day.

Amazing stuff! I hope his estimates were wrong and we see the nano-battery in the next 20 years. I couldn't help but notice he didn't mention the strength of the ceramic. Could it actually withstand the force of a full blown battle? They do have ceramic armor that can stop bullets.

This was very interesting! There was a more recent break through regarding light and matter etc from Harvard University... I think. I'd love to see how Dr Kaku could use those discoveries. And I'd love to see the nano batteries used in the near future. They could probably solve most of our energy needs.

While the nano batteries are great and I'd love to see them exist, getting that much of a charge in them would require their own power plant or to put them on a charger for quite some time. To put the power to run a town for a week into a battery you'd have to provide a week's worth of power for a town.
