Summary:

          A research team at Michigan State University has developed a laser that could detect roadside bombs -- the deadliest enemy weapon encountered in Iraq and Afghanistan.

The laser, which has comparable output to a simple presentation pointer, potentially has the sensitivity and selectivity to canvas large areas and detect improvised explosive devices.

Critique:

          This should be known worldwide for more use of protecting our country.

Impact:

          Our country would be better protected from any bombs.
