I have always thought that most of theoretical physics is nothing more than science fiction with an endowment. I may be slow but I do not understand how scientist can create fields of math to solve the imaginary problems they put forth. Depends on how long it takes to expend that much energy. A joule is a watt-second. so that much energy would light a 1.89 watt LED for 10-7 seconds (0.0000001 seconds) Of course that's the energy of each proton, and their are lots of protons in the beast, even if the beam is really, really "thin".

oops replied to wrong post. Should have been to guitarplayer1953’s question about light bulbs.
