Oh, so it’s less about the physics of starting, more that starting is brief so for some engines, you can start moving but at an unsustainable setting?

Mathematically it’s the exact same situation but flipped.

If you’re a republican, abstaining is voting democrat.

Is this saying something significant or just a tautology?

“totaled” has a technical definition: it’s assessed more expensive to repair than to replace. That will include the cost of all the testing.

I have no idea what this will have damaged. Aircraft can be put back into service after some pretty serious damage, but you make a good point that tests on the structure of an aircraft are done on a new one, so you can’t just do a single test and job done to get the same level of confidence that everything’s ok - if something were weakened, it wouldn’t be clear when it might fail.

That would be a class IV laser and dangerous to eyesight merely from the light scattered off surfaces you point it at. If you point it at a camera and watch what is happening for a while you could get irreversible eye damage.

There is nothing special about cameras that makes them vulnerable - if you shine such a laser at a person, you’ll likely burn them too. If the beam shines or bounces into your eye, you will likely burn your retina before you can even blink.

This is not a meme or a shitpost, it is very dangerous.
