Giant reflector for a ground based beam weapon?

If so, someone was inspired by Space Battleship Yamato.

1. The armorer said the gun was cold, how can she say this without checking it one last time before handing it to Baldwin?

2. Baldwin did not check the gun. I always check a weapon handed to me even if I saw the other person check it. I have been shooting for 60 years.

3. Baldwin fired the weapon in the direction of a person. That is a no no.

4. The safety crew had quit over safety measures not being followed. What the hell was going on at that set?

5. Did the former crew sabotage the weapon? How in the hell did a live round get into the prop gun? Even if that weapon had of been sabotaged step 1 2 and 3 would have assured no harm.

What the hell really happened?

Let’s hope it’s really a FOBS whose orbit goes over Beijing every 6 hours.
