Directed Energy Arrays — And Nematodes in Space Part II — With Philip Lubin and Joel Rothman

Building on the first episode of the season, University of
California, Santa Barbara scientists Philip Lubin and Joel
Rothman discuss Project Starlight, a NASA project that intends to
send microscopic worms — among other creatures — into space.
Lubin, the brainpower behind the directed energy facet of the
project, identifies the considerable photonic advances that must
be made before achieving atmospheric flight. "All Things
Photonics" is produced by Photonics Media and airs biweekly, on
