English term or phrase: we could outshine the sun for a split second by more than a factor of 10,000.

Hela stycket lyder:
We also now, including at the Planetary Society here, are funding activities using optical SETI searches. So, you look for, basically, laser pulses from other civilizations, and it turns out that with even Earth technology now, if we wanted to, we could outshine the sun for a split second by more than a factor of 10,000.

Texten handlar om sökandet efter intelligent liv i rymden, och laserpulser i motsats till radiosignaler. Kan någon upplysa mig om hur detta hänger igop med frasen ovan?
