He wasn't trying to crash a plane. He was using the laser to point at stars. Green lasers are powerful enough to outline constellations. In fact, it's one of the reasons they are produced.

This makes no sense. At night he'd see the planes lights. He'd know it was there. He'd have to deliberately aim at the plane to hit it 3 times.

Plus why lie to Federal investigators about such a simple thing?

Exactly what would the light be bouncing off to highlight/point out a constellation?
