If you're interested in what they're doing for lasers, this link is definitely cool.

NIF's arena-sized building houses 192 laser beams designed to deliver 1.8 million joules of ultraviolet laser energy and 500 terawatts of power to millimeter-sized targets located at the center of its 10-meter-diameter target chamber.

I thought it quite interesting myself.
