June 28, 2017 - A light one billion times brighter than the surface of the Sun has now been created in a lab, making it the brightest light ever produced on Earth.

Luxor Lamp in Las Vegas, the world's brightest light, illuminates the night sky with 42.3 billion candela. Discover its power and ecological impact.

July 18, 2017 - Researchers at the University of Nebraska--Lincoln have created a light that can outshine the sun a billion times over."We have generated and measured the brightest light ever in the history of mankind," said Don Umstadter, director of UN-L's Extreme Light Lab.He and his team of physicists used the lab's Diocles laser to focus the intense beam of light. "We are able to reach this result first in the world.

March 9, 2021 - The beam is created by 39 xenon lights that are each 7,000 watts.

July 28, 2024 - A group of physicists at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln’s Extreme Light Laboratory announced Monday that they have created the brightest light ever produced on Earth using Diocles, one of the most powerful lasers in the United States.

June 27, 2017 - Researchers have just published the results of an experiment creating the brightest light ever produced on Earth – shining as bright as a billion of our Suns.

October 16, 2023 - The BOAT lasted approximately seven minutes and contained more energy than if the entire sun’s mass was converted into energy at once. It slightly disturbed the Earth’s ionosphere, despite being unimaginably distant at 2.4 billion light years from Earth. The BOAT's true brightness is not fully measured because it saturated the detectors of almost all gamma-ray instruments in space.

March 28, 2023 - The first time he tested the light for the Hacksmith video, he hadn't yet designed a way to focus the beam, so the intense brightness filled the warehouse. Thiele's multiple pairs of sunglasses proved no match for Nitebrite 300. "It was very bright.

November 25, 2015 - Need a light to illuminate clouds or a mountainside? Check out the world's most powerful flashlight, created by Daniel Riley of Stratus Productions. By

April 19, 2025 - The Luxor Sky Beam, mounted upon Las Vegas’ Luxor Hotel pyramid, is the world’s brightest artificial light. With the combined output of 7,000-watt lamps, the beam’s emitting intensity once reached 42.3 billion candela.

Answer (1 of 2): The most powerful xenon short arc lamps produced so far were 30,000 watts lamps (five times more powerful than the largest cinema projector lamps). Lumen output was approximately 3,000,000 lumen (100 lumen per watt).

November 22, 2023 - A laser has produced the most dazzling light ever made on Earth – one billion times brighter than the surface of the sun · Scientists at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln in the US fired an ultra high-intensity laser known as “Diocles” ...

April 9, 2008 - “My astrophysicist friends tell me that near a gamma-ray burst, they surmised that the [light] intensity probably gets to 1020 watts per square centimetre during the explosion,” Ditmire told New Scientist. Light from the Texas Petawatt laser can reach about 100 times that level, he says. “For the briefest instant, over a very small volume, we’ll have the brightest light in the universe.”

March 25, 2024 - Nothing and no one equal the exquisite eternal brightness of the Person of Jesus Christ. All other sources of light pale in comparison to His brilliant Glory and Radiance! His brilliance extends beyond worlds, space and time.

Answer (1 of 2): That kind of depends on what you call “world” and “light”. I define brightness as watts per steradian, so it doesn’t change brightness as a function of how far you are from it. Obviously, standing at the top of Luxor looking into the Sky Beam, you would say it is the brightest li...

Answer (1 of 7): The question is quite vague about what would qualify as a mechanical light source, and brightness is also an ambiguous term. Nuclear weapons are quite bright. They can have energy outputs of 100 petajoules, about a third of which is released in the form of light and heat. Howeve...
