Death rays. Who could ever get tired of these things? It captures the imagination with both thoughts of power and destruction. The idea of siccing devastation from afar upon an enemy is by no means a new idea. While not always called a death ray, the general idea has been around for at least the last two thousand years. Archimedes supposedly created such a device. Modern testing shows it would most likely brown bread rather than cause an inferno of death. But the idea and desire was certainly there.
