Sep 30, 2025 - The Wild Plan to Power Earth with Lasers



Why Space Based Solar Isn`t Entirely Stupid. Aetherflux is ditching massive solar farms for single satellites closer to Earth for space solar power. They plan to use high-powered lasers to beam energy to small, mobile receivers. If this tech reaches lift-off, it could one day deliver power where infrastructure doesn`t exist … from disaster zones to military bases. Could this be the special use case that finally launches space-based solar power? And if this approach works, could it eventually make orbital energy cheap enough for the rest of us?
