Translate these sentences from the History of Laser video into Russian

· A beam of light needs eight minutes and nineteen seconds to reach the Earth.

· The man who paved the way was Albert Einstein.

· By pure logic Einstein proposed that there had to be an until then unknown type of light emission that would allow us to control the characteristics of light to a degree that was not dreamt possible before.

· Four years later in 1921 he was awarded the Nobel Prize for Physics for his groundbreaking theories about light.

· One day Townes would study physics and his fundamental work in the field of quantum electronics enabled the construction of the very first masers and lasers.

· The laser was a groundbreaking technology that would find applications in every sector of modern life and activity. It was an invention that triggered innovations itself.

Growth of laser materials processing

1960s. The first CO2laser, developed in ______, had a power output of only one milliwatt. By 1967, CO2 lasers with power exceeding 1,000 watts were possible. The first commercial application of laser materials processing was in May _____ when Peter Houldcroft of TWI (The Welding Institute) in Cambridge, England used an oxygen-assisted CO2 laser beamto cut through a sheet of steel 1 mm thick.

 

1970s.Continued refinement of CO2 lasers along with developments of new types of lasers introduced the first laser machining applications. Laser-Work A.G. developed the first ____________ system in 1975. The earliest applications were driven by automobile and aircraft manufacturers who were discovering the value of lasers for metal cutting and welding.

 

S.______________________ started a new era of laser materials processing. Applications expanded from metal cutting and welding, to processing organic materials such as plastic, rubber and foam.
