If you've previously dismissed space-based solar power -- revisit the topic. New technologies & the risk of planet-side chaos from climate change argue for urgent adoption of SBSP. My latest #spacetech thriller, CRITICAL MASS, explores this topic in detail. #SpaceBasedSolarPower #CriticalMass

Let's be clear, a technology company wants to do this; scientists are against this. If you want to harness solar energy in orbit, then do it in orbit. #SBSP #SpaceBasedSolarPower #solar This proposal is bad for #astronomy, for the #environment, and for #wildlife

@cnn.com @victorblackwell.bsky.social ‪@neildegrassetyson.com I'd argue against a nuclear reactor on the moon, unless its fusion,which would be nice, fission is dirty. We need #SpaceBasedSolarPower. Run a set of sats along moons terminator and could transfer power to anywhere on moon at will.

Space-based solar power is a concept under development that would involve using satellites in geosynchronous orbit to collect solar energy and transmit it wirelessly to Earth. This could provide a clean and potentially limitless source of energy. #SpaceFacts #SpaceBasedSolarPower #SBSP #Renewab...
