Download or read book Solar Power Satellites written by Don M. Flournoy and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2011-12-02 with total page 118 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Communication satellites are a $144 billion industry. Is there any space-based industry that could possibly beat that market? 'Solar Power Satellites' shows why and how the space satellite industry will soon begin expanding its market from relaying signals to Earth to generating energy in space and delivering it to the ground as electricity. In all industrialized nations, energy demand is growing exponentially. In the developing world, the need for energy is as basic as food and water. The Sun's energy is available everywhere, and it is non-polluting. As business plans demonstrate its technical feasibility, commercial potential, and environmental acceptability, every country on Earth will look to space for the power it needs.

This book was released on 2001-12 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A look at ways to collect solar power in space with satellites and beam that power down to Earth to supplement our other sources of electricity. In addition, this is a look at novel ways, to say the least, to construct those satellites. The witnesses at these Senate hearings envision a time when space will be the scene of bustling activity. They foresee construction of gigantic facilities that will provide the world with energy, which is an essential and increasingly costly part of our industrial society.
