This is the tech people need if they want to be scary, I guess:

Good luck shooting down something in space that casts a ray capable of incinerating anything it's looking at. You'd have to go into orbit and come at it that way, in all likelihood, especially if they had additional ones. Why nobody has done this yet is beyond me. It's basically a free "rule the planet" card. There's no way to actually prevent getting roasted by it. Something I saw pointed out that if fired at NYC, it would've instantly liquefied all the metal. Anything less durable, obviously, would just turn to ash and blow away.


A one tonne tungsten rod dropped from high orbit on to, well, anywhere - even deep ocean, would cause enough damage to crack the planet in half
