This Week’s Brain Challenge ✨

A tiny puzzle to stretch your mind and spark curiosity.

πŸš€ The Space Laser Puzzle

Your spaceship is stuck inside a mirrored chamber in deep space. A laser beam shoots from the left wall and bounces between two angled mirrors.

Question: After 5 reflections, where will the laser hit the wall? Can you map the pattern? Can you predict reflection 10?

Hint: Watch the angle. The beam repeats after a fixed cycle… if you spot it.

The laser follows a repeating zig-zag cycle. After 5 reflections, it lands on the top-right wall of the chamber. The pattern repeats every 4 reflections, so reflection 10 ends at the same wall as reflection 2.
