迷人历史
The Sun Gun While the Allies were worried about the Germans developing atomic capabilities, the Nazis researched a different idea that they hoped would be the most destructive weapon ever built—the Sun Gun.
Allied scientists came across the plans for the Sun Gun after the war was over, along with other mad-scientist level stuff like saucer-shaped aircraft that took off and landed vertically and giant tanks that were like battleships on land.
The sun gun or heliobeam was a theoretical orbital weapon.
The Scottish mathematician John Napier proposed such a device. In his book Secrete Inventionis (1596), he published details of a giant mirror to burn enemy ships by focusing the sun's rays on them.
