<p>HughDaniel: Solar Power Satellites to solve Earths Energy Needs</p> <hr /> <div>== Solar Power Satellites ==<br /> <br /> <br /> Keith Henson has been thinking about what it would take to generate enough power from the Sun in space to solve ALL of Earth's population energy needs and more.<br /> <br /> This work need to be fleshed out, both in engineering term and communited to a wider public such that they understand the pros (and cons) of this solution to our energy and living standards needs.<br /> <br /> Clearly this is just the very first text to be rewritten again and again.<br /> <br /> Things I think we need:<br /> <br /> * A Drakes equation of all the primary terms needed to make it happen.<br /> <br /> * The anti-Drakes Equation argument, of why SPS can't or should not be done.<br /> <br /> * Downloadable spreadsheet of the cost/time/effort assumptions of what it would take to build LOTS of SPS satellites.<br /> <br /> * Detailed arguments both pro and con and on specific bits that are known working or in need of inventing.<br /> <br /> <br /> Edit away.</div>
