mxeffIf God had wanted us to have nearly unlimited clean energy, He would have placed a fusion reactor into the sky.
A_Chilean_CyborgYeah about that.
Those are termosolar powerplant, they use the sun to boil water and spin a turbine.
Although they’re falling out of use these days, both because they’re not very environmentally friendly on account of being instant bird death-rays, and also because regular solar panels are cheap enough that it’s not worth it to make a big thermosolar plant.
MousePotatoDoesStuffI wonder if it could be worth it to make one of those on other planets/the Moon one day. No birds to worry about there.
Solar panels are still cheaper and easier. Most spaceships and probes rely on them.
Yea, I should have guessed as much.
