gollark: Some of the Starlink satellites have communications lasers also.
gollark: I think you could technically have a "space laser" for only a few tens of kilodollars if you stick a few-watt laser diode onto a CubeSat or something. But it wouldn't be very good.
gollark: Hopefully space launch costs will reduce over time.
gollark: You know the Y distance (EDIT: from gun to can) is 0 because it says on the same level.
gollark: If you look at, say, HTTP internet radio stations which use ogg streams, then they appear to browsers and such as audio files which keep getting longer. I assume the format just allows you to stick ogg packets on the end and don't care much about declared length.
