What if this isn't physically possible?
- Robotbeat 5y agoThere is no law of physics which says it’s impossible. But if you have discovered one with solid and falsifiable evidence, it would be a breakthrough in physics! But I wouldn’t book a trip to Sweden for a Nobel Prize just yet. Over 100 Petawatts of sunlight hits the Earth, which is a factor of 10,000 more than we’d need. And humanity already gathers and economically utilizes some solar energy beyond the Earth.
