Video: US Military slowly approaching Death Star weaponry capabilities

The world finally has a functional death ray. Raytheon's new "Laser Weapons System" is a solid-state, six-laser array attached to a Navy Phalanx Close-In Weapons System.

The Death Star according to a Wikipedia article is  a fictional moon-sized space station and superweapon appearing in the Star Wars movies and expanded universe.
