This twit does not have a clue about the energy density necessary to “beam” the required energy back to earth. Belive me, it’s a whopping amount.
What happens if the transmitting satillite accidently drifts off course?
What happens if it’s not accidental??
I don't know that much about the subject, but I know that my own house uses 2000-3000 Watts at times, maybe more.
If there's a beam carrying that much power from there to here, then I dang sure don't want to walk through the beam.
So if it's going to carry power to YOUR house as well as mine, then we're gonna need a bigger beam.
Even if they paint it orange and tell pilots to avoid it, it won't be long before there are fried eagles falling and we all know how THAT will turn out.
I’m thinking it would be an array of satellites, each with only a few Megawatts of power. The sky over the focal point would be extremely dangerous, granted. Operators would have to cooridnate with local ATC and have a way of shutting down in the event of an incursion.
It is not safe to fly over the Haystack radar in Westford, Massachusetts, ten miles north of where I sit right now. Vastly worse for this thing, but it could be worthwhile.
