A 30-Megawatt Space Solar Power Plant Is Scheduled For 2030
Innovators in the field of space solar power are outperforming expectations for commercial application, anticipating operation by 2030.
I remember this going poorly in SimCity 2000
Only sometimes!
Yeah, this seems better than feeding the poor and putting solar panels on some roofs.
On one hand: this will reduce the Sunshine reaching earth which will lead to lower temperatures despite the added insulation from the CO2 in the air. On the other hand: this will be the first of many blocking out the sun beneath them. Since the Collector station needs to be so large, many satellites will be pointed to the same stations, clustering in space and create dark spots on land. Guess where the rich won't be living...
This is wrong on so many levels, I don't know where to start.
