Hum... I would require a lot of surface area, that's certain. There's no constraint at all at the mass.
- bufferoverflow 2y agoYes, there's a constraint on mass. Surface area is for dissipation. Mass will have to store the absorbed energy until it's dissipated. Mass determines the temperature. And every material has a limit on that temperature.
