Well, I was searching to see if this was already made, but the searches didn't show a thread with my idea so here it is. I am making this thread so we can have a typical tavern discussion thread for all things science! Basically, a thread for everything science! Ranging from discussions about laws and theories, scientific debate, breakthroughs, discussion about new scientific breakthroughs, certain scientists/philosophers, and all that good stuff!
So go out there and let out your inner science! ;P
To get us going somewhere I'll start: what do you think the future holds for technology? I think our knowledge will allow us to overcome the obstacles thrown at us in the future, I mean, we have discovered so much and have come so far!

The closest we will ever get to a long range electric weapon is a green frequency laser. That or a sniper tazer.

I think they've already begun to work on the sniper tazer.

That was more of a joke, but it could work. It would be inaccurate as hell, but it would shock the hell out of them.

I think they planned on the taser being in a metal shell that would keep it on track at first and then peel off as it's in the air.

A taser sabot. yes. But that's probably not what it's called.

Sniper tasers? Boring! Lasers? Boring! Since you contradict most ideas, whats the point of thinking of them? And, Like I said before about the Tesla-barrel, its not supposed to be a minigun, its supposed to be an extremely big gun, to be mounted on warships or kept unmovable on land.

Not me. I was talking about long range. Atleast 50 meters.

Its hard to shoot DC that far without the current breaking up.

i feel that the impact alone would knock them down if it was that powerful. there would be no need for the taser part.
