The Laser Highway
The Laser Highway actually will consist of multiple hiways connected at transfer points. The first leg, which connects L1 to Luna, is already built:
=== Luna-L1 Directed Energy Corridor ===
Corporate Name: Laser Highway Segment One
Common Name: The L1L
The L1L is already treated almost like a railroad, not a laser. The important thing is the traffic. By 2158 you might hear:
"L1L traffic is down 8% this quarter."
"The Tycho strike delayed L1L maintenance."
"Atlas closed the L1L for six hours."
"A ship missed its L1L insertion window."
The beam becomes invisible and mundane; the corridor becomes important.
