Today the Peoples Congress approved a measure to send out five of Dontgoneartheres eight Piledriver class Planetbusters to test a new firing system. The tests targets are four new planets, each is still mostly liquid rock, as well as four gas giants. The tests will help to determine the weapon systems overall effects on new planets and gas giants, since these tests have never been attempted before to the governments knowledge any country may send observers.
Contracts to produce and sell the DGSL-5000 laser are avalible, TG Dontgonearthere for details.

DGSL-5000 overview:
Stats:
Length(total) 2 miles
Length(barrel) 1.5 miles
Width: .2 miles
Power: eight GCG-2200 turbocharged generators (per gun)
Configurations: Single barreled low power planetary version, single barreled high power space craft mounted version, double turret mounted space version, X2 linked double turret mounted.
Crew: 2500 beings (depending on number of limbs) per gun
Rate of fire: Once every five minutes up to ten shots, once every ten minutes for unlimited fire (high power, varies for low)
Beam power: A whole damn lot
Beam dimensions: 1 mile up, down, left, right (terms relative to orientation.
Beam range: 45.2 million miles (depending on local conditions, higher concentrations of particles in local area may limit range)
If you shot the beam at a gas giant, wouldn't it ignite?

It depends on the gas, and thats why were doing the study.
I imagine it would look very cool if a planet caught fire, send a picture if it happens.
The Republic of Reformed Alcardia would love to purchase a large picture to hang in the Capitol Building of one of these explosions, if they are ever achieved. We would be willing to pay a decent price.

All right, one time only pictures of Jupiter on fire :D
$20,000 for each, there are only five avalible.
WE also have pictures of a young liquid state planet spliting in two, there are lots of these and they can be bought for $10
The Republic of Reformed Alcardia will transfer $20,000 immediately in exchange for one of these fantastic pictures.

Right, item will ship once money is wired, estimate 2-3 days delivery, were shipping it high security. Two pictures remain and are expected to increase in value greatly, along with any other pictures of the former jupiter (one is in possession of Mr 47, dictators privilige, so nah, you capitalist warmongers)
We also have pictures of what is now Jupiter, all thats left is the core, which is ultra high gravity, and is quickly gathering more gas, these pictures are avalible for $100 dollars. Please be advsied that the GLA is not responsible for the gravetic effects of the loss of the planet, though they are anticipated as minor since most of the mass is in the core.

We'll take one of the small pictures.
*money wired*
This picture of Jupiter exploding will be perfect right above the Senate President's podium. It'll make everyone pay attention. A very good buy -- I recommend that the other two be purchased by savvy buyers as soon as possible! These will be a collector's item!

Ed, you mean the ones of the liquid planet? That would be ten GLACREDS then.

Yeah. sorry I didn't specify, and also, could you ship one of the ones of post jupiter? 100 I think.
110 *Wired*
if you can increase the heat enough you can turn it into a sun.

It was sort of like a sun for about ten minutes...but the methane burned off pretty quickly.
