The brightest light in the universe isn’t some star billions of light years away. Nor is it any other astronomical phenomenon. The "Brightest Light" title belongs to the world’s most powerful laser, created by physicists at the University of Texas.

The laser generates 1 petawatt (1 million billion watts) of power, which is more than all the power plants in the world combined. That level of power, and the resulting brightest light ever recorded in the universe, is sustained only for trillionths of a second.

The laser is being used to study the intense conditions of stars.

Testimonials

  • “Just had to say that Rich Schefren has really hit the nail on the head about the media and so called ‘journalism’ in his article ‘How to Make More Money During a Recession.’

    “Absolutely brilliant and spot on. They have to fill so many newspaper/magazine pages and so much TV airtime that any ‘news’ item is completely overexposed and hyped up. (Swine flu is a good example.) It also seems that many journalists really don’t know much about the subjects they are writing about. Fortunately, the same cannot be said about Early to Rise.

    “Keep up the good work.”
