Global warming problem solved!!
Global warming problem solved!!
Scientists may try to stop global warming by putting thousands of mirrors in space
- Thread starter stinkynuts
- Start date
"...the trillions of mirrors would have to be fired one million miles above the earth using a huge cannon with a barrel of 0.6 miles across"stinkynuts said:
The Germans could have used one of those cannons at Stalingrad - sure puts the "Dora" gun to shame.
wasn't this the plot of a James Bond film?
but seriously, if one of the purposes is to create shade on Earth, why not then make it a solar panel and harness the sun's rays.

Ain't the problem too many people ?
Why are we not working on that ?
Too politically sensitive?
If we do not now then future genocides will

CONGRATULATIONS DARK CHIMERA!!! Go to the head of the class because you hit the nail on the head!! Personally I think its too late and we should have been doing something about curtailing human populations many years ago. But no, we just keep on taking in all these immigrants from countries with much higher birth rates than our own.Dark Chimera said:
let me see if I understand the concept here.
A) we spend seversal times the GNP of the planet
B) we design a weapon that has a bore of 600M
C) the weapon produces enough muzzel velocity to launch a payload of unknown mass 1 Million miles from the earth
D) the payload has trillions of subunits each of which would have to stop in a precise position at a precise distance and maintain that position for 20-30 years.
If I have properly defined the problem I do have 1 question that I would like answered.
WHAT THE HELL ARE THESE SPACE CADETS DOING WITH OUR TAX MONEY?
