    My guess is that even if they did, they would have still did
    what they did.  After all, they don't want people not to
    understand what's going on, even if that means not being
    technically accurate.  And the two colored projection beams
    are more visually interesting.

    Think of it this way -- have you ever seen a space movie,
    besides 2001, where the space ships *don't* fly by without
    making any noise?
