Kasparian says that in future, Christodoulides's team's work could be combined with his to help aim the laser pulses and
plasma channels at specific targets, such as clouds, although he points out that the laser pulses can also be guided
using mirrors.
They've ruined that but the University of Geneva, research is being done on sort of an amazing idea for being able to
use lasers that would be directed, shot up into the sky into storm formations, that might have a lot electrical activity, basically creating a
plasma channel to help guide the lightning down to a spot where you want it to hit so it's not just randomly hitting someplace else.
High - speed Ca2 + imaging,
using swept - field confocal microscopy, showed the Ca2 + influx through the reverse - polarity
channels was not localized to the hair bundle, but distributed across the apical
plasma membrane.
