The system according to claim 1, wherein the digital pixelator comprises a digital light processing (DLP) system. 3. The system according to claim 1, further including a structure supporting the screen. 4. The system according to claim 3, wherein the structure includes the aerial vehicle, wherein the laser source is located on the ground. 5. The system according to claim 3, wherein the structure includes a building. 6. The system according to claim 1, wherein the tether is configured to transmit red-green-blue (RGB) light from the laser source. 7. The system according to claim 1, wherein the screen has an adjustable size. 8. The system according to claim 1, wherein the screen can provide different content at different viewing angles. 9. The system according to claim 1, wherein the screen is not physically connected to the laser source. 10. A method, comprising: employing a fiber optic display screen remotely from a laser source by: employing relay optics to receive an output from the laser source;employing condenser optics coupled to the relay optics; andemploying a digital pixelator coupled to the condenser optics;employing a fiber optic transmission line coupled to the digital pixelator, wherein the fiber optic display screen comprises terminal ends of fibers in the fiber optic transmission line; andtethering from the laser source to the digital pixelator with a tether comprising optical fibers, wherein the tether is configured for attachment to an aerial vehicle. 11. The method according to claim 10, further including securing the screen to a structure. 12. The method according to claim 10, further including securing the display screen to an aerial vehicle and locating the laser source in a ground-based environment. 13. The method according to claim 10, further including securing the screen to a building. 14. The method according to claim 10, further including adjusting a size of the screen. 15. The method according to claim 10, further including providing different content on the screen at different viewing angles.
