The reading claims that burning Raman ships by burning mirror was an unreal story. However, the lecturer finds all the idea questionable and presents some evidence to refute them all.
The author argues that ancient Greeks didn’t enough technical knowledge for fabricating these mirrors. Conversely, the lecturer brings the idea that by using the mathematical information they would easily be able to create parabolic shape mirror by putting some sheet of copper together.
Furthermore, the reading passage holds the view that the burning ships by mirror take a long time so it wouldn’t be useful. On the contrary, the professor underlines the fact that burning wood takes 10 minutes but Raman’s ships were built by other material such as pitch as well. Burning pitch takes only one second and it could spread fire to the whole of a ship even when it moves.
Finally, the reading asserts that Greeks didn’t need such weapon in that time. In contrast, the speaker dismisses this issue due to the fact that flaming arrows were predictable for ancient Roman and they could defend themselves, but burning mirror wasn’t detectable for them so it could be an effective and surprising weapon for Greeks.
