Reread the above stuff, the stuff behind ">>"
There is the evedince, compeling and sensible evidence that says, without doubt, that they are not lasers! You can't see lasers in the vacuum of space! Lasers travel at the speed of light, TL bolts don't! Before the visible tracer hits the target it explodes, why?, because it could be plasme that is so hot the heat before the head of bolt is so extreme it causes the instant vaporization of a nickle iron asteroid, We have canon evidence of that, ESB, so don't even try to argue with it.
Blasters, lasers cannons, and Turbolasers, are not true L.A.S.A.R.s, they operate differently, THEY DON'T SHOOT LIGHT!, the discharge of visible light is secondary and proof that they aren't true L.A.S.A.R.s
It is a term that doesn't explain the operating principle, just like the photon torpedo, the name dosn't say it.
