Green lasers are everywhere in today's world. After all, every CD player has one. They are cheap to produce. So why do you see green laser pointer selling for $70 and up advertised in astronomy magazines? Well, green, it turns out, is a more complicated color. Viable diodes do not exist at the right wavelength, so the laser beam is "pumped" through a pair of crystals that must be precisely collimated. (There's more to the process, and Wikipedia offers a longer, more boring explanation for those interested, but it's fair to say that collimation complicates everything and adds to the cost.)

Green laser Pointers with output power in the tens to hundreds of milliwatts (mW) range, significantly exceeding the 5 mW limit of the American National Standards Institute Class 3A (INTERNATIONAL Electrotechnical Commission Class 3R), are now readily available on the global market. Although such high power levels may pose a potential threat to visual health, they are increasingly used by educators and science communicators for public sky observations and other nighttime outreach activities, and their use is not well regulated in these countries. The purpose of this study is to determine the reasonable output power required to perform such activities satisfactorily. Geese are afraid of laser Pointers because bright beams look like potential threats. When scaring them away, drive them away and never point the laser directly at their body.
