Think it wouldn’t be possible?
EXN gives you some tips
on how to make a Lightsaber with Plasma.
We see examples of plasma every day. The sun itself is made out of plasma, being a giant ball of superheated glowing hydrogen. Lightning is an example of the gases in the atmosphere igniting into a streak of plasma as an electric discharge crashes from sky to Earth. Neon and fluorescent tubes are also examples of an electric charge igniting a gas, although at lower temperatures. Nuclear fusion is technology that seeks to fuse atoms in a plasma, which would result in a large release of energy.
