Classic telescopes capture shapes only over 42 mm at the same distance. The technology is based on "active interferometer", which analyzes the reflection of the light. It must be illuminated so that the technology is not invisible. From China comes an impressive technological leap: a watch laser that can read smaller letters... than an ear Bob, from a distance over a mile. With a precision of 1 millimetre to 1.36 km, it is much more than the abi…
