China to Build Giant Solar Power Station in Space

[Ree4]

I believe it. China is always a future looking country. Not like USA.

Just like how they built cities of empty apartment buildings before they needed them. They were planning for the future and providing housing to their expected population - the West laughed at them. We prefer that our people be homeless.

Oh lord

But they are.

No love fest. I will never travel there. But to not look at the truth, is kind of of un-American. America is full of people that are so short sighted that they think losing tik tok for 12 hours. China and India are developing at a high rate. Sorry if that offends you. Not like I have Chinese flag on my flag pole. I'm a realist.

Exactly, stating facts is not the same as declaring fealty. Our system is broken and backsliding. Quality of life is eroding for most. We need more real solutions and less xenophobia.

I wouldn’t go buying stock in Egg Roll Solar just yet Jimmy. Remember, China is the innovative country that:

- BUILDS bullet trains over giant bridges (that run empty)

- BUILDS entire cities in mere months (that are vacant)

- BUILDS electronics at low prices (using stolen IP)

Oh, and their space program is relatively new with a less than flawless record and the whole communism and genocide thing….

Nope, definitely China

China has at least 65 million empty homes — enough to house the population of France. It offers a glimpse into the country's massive housing-market problem.

In the US and Japan, abandoned homes have earned cities the titles of "ghost towns." But China's are different — they're not abandoned, just empty.

China’s Ghost Cities Are Finally Stirring to Life After Years of Empty Streets​

this space solar power station is meant to supply power to where? space stations? or earth? if latter would that require a long ass cable?

Big ass microwave antenna.

You mean the real estate crisis they are in the midst of?

Who wants high speed rail when you can turn wealth into smoke on the other side of the world?

I would think that before you built high speed rail you would need a customer base that would actually use it enough to make it worthwhile to build.

I pointed out that China is more forward thinking than USA. That creates a firestorm by MAGAs on here. Proof is right there.
