How could you see it in mid air unless there is something for it to reflect off of?

just know that green lasers are more powerful than red lasers and can much more easily damage your eyesight.

Please note: You must remove the green circular sticker on end of the laser pointer before using it.

Actually it is class 3a just like ordinary laser pointers and green isnt especially absorbed by the eye more than red so it should not cause anymore danger than a regular red pointer.
