Giant mirrors in space could also focus the light to create a superweapon that could destroy cities. Critics argue that there might be some disadvantages to this idea.
Yeah but the Global Defence Initiative need to be ready with their superweapon for when Kane rises in power. Do you know he’ll be nuclear armed!
Could even melt an ice palace, endangering the lives of James Bond and Halle Barry in the process (don’t worry, they’ll be fine, they’ve got hefty plot armor).
We already have superweapons In the form of nukes, this is a lot harder
Could probably destroy a fancy telescope or someone’s retinas using a normal telescope"
This is literally the dumbest idea and it has been the whole time.
No, no, no, fuck you, fuck your space startups, fuck your VC’s, just stop.
Fuck that space startup in particular. There are a lot of good ones too.
Fair enough.
This sounds terrible, no matter what the scenario.
I don’t know, I think this could help rise the levels of depression among people quicker
Hmmm, maybe. But I still think there are better solutions to that.
We need them all
Why?
What you mean?
Why do we need them all?
To increase the rate, it will never be enough so all avenues must be taken
This won’t have a bad effect on the biosphere at all. No sir.
That should fix that pesky global warming problem…

I am adding this to my 2026 and 2027 bingo
“Teen pays 40 dollars to Giant Mirror service to blast sunlight at Chilean observatory destroying 2.5m USD of equipment. Giant Mirror service denies liability.”
“Sunning. The new SWATing?”
I’ve been hearing about this for at least 15 years I think. Is there something new?
Been floated since at least 2002.
Just what we needed. More light and heat.
yet another company who thinks physics can be bribed
