Re: The ultimate Star Wars anti-nuke defense

Okay, subatomic physics is not my top area of expertise, but how the hell do you focus and aim a neutrino beam? Neutrinos have no charge to allow you to control them with electromagnetic fields, and it is somewhat difficult to find a substance that will reflect them.

Teller's old nuclear-pumped orbital X-ray laser idea would be orders of magnitude easier to build.
