I Hope James Bond Is Around To Save Us In 2030
Japan is testing a satellite that can turn solar power into microwaves and beam the energy back to receiving stations on Earth. Read all about the project here at Pink Tentacle.
On the surface that sounds like a great idea: Satellites in geosynchronous orbit beaming down power via microwaves or lasers. It could solve our energy problems here on Earth and lessen our dependance on fossil fuels. Or it could become a weapon used by a madman bent on world domination.
Haven’t the Japanese ever watched a James Bond movie before? Like maybe Diamonds Are Forever, in which SPECTRE launches a laser-armed satellite and proceeds to blast various targets after demanding ransom from the world leaders.
Of course they keep working on robots to enslave the world despite all the anime evidence that this would be a bad idea. When will they ever learn?
