A class 3 green laser can typically shine up to 500 to 1,000 meters in distance, depending on the specific device and environmental conditions. This type of laser is not suitable for astronomy or precise long-distance pointing due to its limited range and potential eye safety risks.
It depends on what colour it is, the type of laser it is, the output level, the quality of the optics and the media it's travelling through. In a perfect vacuum, they'll travel much longer than through atmosphere. For example, green lasers travel further than red or blue. Class 1 and 2 lasers have an output power level of <5mW. Class 3 can go up to 100mW. See related link.
LASER is Light amplification by stimulated emission of radiation. As far as I have understood, Solid State laser is a macroscopic form of diode laser. Thus a small semiconductor diode is similar to a solid state laser except for the mechanism of lasing and size.
The range of a 1mW laser pointer can vary, but typically it can be seen up to a few hundred meters in normal lighting conditions. However, the visibility decreases significantly in bright daylight or over longer distances. It is important to remember to use laser pointers responsibly and follow safety guidelines.
A 10 mW laser pen typically has a visible range of up to a few kilometers in optimal conditions. However, the actual distance the beam can travel effectively depends on factors like atmospheric conditions, ambient light, and the presence of obstructions.
some uses for a laser are; · Laser eye surgery · Hair removal · Light shows · Compact disks and DVD players · Barcode readers · Computers · Cutting through metal · Removing tattoos · Removing mould from a tooth in surgery · Removing skin spots and cancer · Special effects in movies(Star Wars, Star Trek) And be used in laser presenters and laser pointers As far as laser pointers are concerned, there are also many uses, and to make laser dance, laser tag or laser toy, etc.
the blue beast (5mw red laser) shines about 1500 ft. at night time
It is very powerful, falling into the "3B" class. Classes were determined by levels that can cause a lesion. The UltraViolet laser is far more dangerous than the visible laser. In the visible range, a continuous laser classes are: Class 1: up to 0.39 mW. Class 2: 0.39 mW to 1 mW. Class 3A: of 1 to 5 mW. Class 3B: 5 to 500 mW. Class 4: beyond 500 mW.
How far should headlights shine?
Lg shine by far!
Any light beam will go on forever, though it will become attenuated, if not absorbed by intervening matter.
do you mean how far does the light go? red lasers can reach up to 10ft (at least as far as I've seen). at 5mw green lasers can range from (3000ft - 5000ft and still see beam clearly). at 5mw
As far as your eyes can see...
As far as I know, cats can not fire lasers. But they love laser pointer toys.

It is a laser based measuring device. You look through the viewfinder and point the sight at the top of the flag or to where you want the measurement and the laser bounces off it and back to the rangefinder telling you how far it is. They are extrememly accurate.
