gollark: Great, just turn it up and down really fast to send messages.
gollark: Do you have the ability to edit the speed of light?
gollark: Ugh, *seriously*?
gollark: If you have some sort of multi-hundred-zettawatt coherent light beam, I think you should be able to change the look of the sun slightly.
gollark: They are caused by charged particles interacting with the magnetosphere and something something bremsstrahlung, so if you just beam high-energy charged particles at the atmosphere and somehow avoid having them just interact with arbitrary air atoms, you can trigger auroras.
