   That's been the subject of science fiction for many decades. The problem, of   
   course, is that in order to test the theory, you need a super-strong laser   
   mounted on a satellite. Either we don't have lasers that strong mounted on   
   satellites, or their existence is classified. Either way, they're not likely   
   to be involved in any public testing of anti-hurricaine procedures.
