SpaceX Starship Could FINALLY Beam Solar Power To Earth!
SpaceX Starship Could FINALLY Beam Solar Power To Earth! As per Michigan-based start-up Virtus Solis, SpaceX’s Starship is expected to revolutionize space-based solar power generation and render orbiting power plants not just affordable but also less expensive than numerous other Earthly ways of electricity generation. How will SpaceX make this happen? Let’s check it out! Hey guys, welcome back to my channel. In today’s video, we are going to explore how SpaceX’s Starship could beam solar power to Earth.

In 1941, science fiction writer Isaac Asimov proposed the concept of space solar power in his short story “Reason.” However, in truth, it has long been written off as being too expensive and technically challenging to be economically feasible. But as the threat posed by climate change becomes more pressing and space economics shifts, governments globally are reevaluating space’s possibilities. To determine whether it is feasible to launch experiments into orbit by the end of the decade, scientists from China, the US, the UK, Japan, and Europe are looking into this. During the International Conference on Energy from Space, which took place in London on Wednesday, April 17, Virtus Solis—founded by John Bucknell, a former rocket engineer at SpaceX—presented their concept.
