Making a Plasma Bolt without breaking physics... in SPACE

[jjabrams55]

Essentially yes, from what I'm told is possible, though it wouldn't work especially well in atmosphere as the plasma would interact physically with the air and disrupt the toroid, causing it to dissipate.

Cool. So we would shoot 'onion rings' made out of fire at high velocities. Like relativistic particle beam speed (99% lightspeed). Otherwise it would be no better/practical than a slow missile. Because in space distances are that HUGE.

Give how the plasma is rotated, we would fire it out horizontally rather than flipped vertically. You would never see the flashy effects of plasma rings flying here and there, since they are going too fast. But the damage... oh the damage they would do. I think an asteroid the size of car could be blown up by one of those.

Good suggestion... given it requires much less power/energy expenditure than my idea. Those are the kind of ideas I look for. Thanks. If something works just as well and has the look/effect I want PLUS uses less energy, it's a win-win for me.

Thanks again.
