124 – America’s moral obligation to develop astroelectricity

Space solar power platform in GEO being constructed

Established as an inalienable human right by President Franklin Roosevelt, “freedom from want” requires abundant supplies of industrial energy. Through the development of space solar power-generated astroelectricity, America can fulfill its moral obligation to enable the global achievement of “freedom from want” with abundant green energy. Continue Reading124 – America’s moral obligation to develop astroelectricity

The eBook, “Astroelectricity”, discussing America’s exciting future in developing space solar power-generated astroelectricity, is now available for a free download from ResearchGate. Continue Reading123 – Ebook Astroelectricity now available for free download

121 – An assessment of EU decarbonization options including astroelectricity

If a government pledges and, especially, if it imposes laws mandating decarbonization, then it is reasonable to expect that the practical means to achieve decarbonization has been quantitatively defined. In short, a well-developed decarbonization plan must exist somewhere, right? What if such a plan doesn’t exist? Continue Reading121 – An assessment of EU decarbonization options including astroelectricity

120 – The Coming Age of Astroelectricity

Space solar power-generated astroelectricity is growing in recognition as the world’s future primary green energy source. This video and paper explain why this is happening. Continue Reading120 – The Coming Age of Astroelectricity

119 – Astroelectricity far surpasses the dangerous Green New Deal

The Green New Deal is a false choice for America and the world to achieve an orderly and prosperous transition to sustainable energy. Mike Snead provides two presentations that describe why GEO space-based solar power (astroelectricity) is the way to achieve this goal. Continue Reading119 – Astroelectricity far surpasses the dangerous Green New Deal

118 – Communist China’s Space Threat

As part of its “great rejuvenation” to seek global hegemony, communist China has a “space dream” to dominate the coming spacefaring industrial revolution. U.S. Space Command will need an American “Star Fleet” with substantial manned space combat capabilities to respond to the growing communist Chinese space threat. Continue Reading118 – Communist China’s Space Threat

116 – A legal "warning shot across the bow" regarding our continued fossil carbon fuel use

The Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals, while dismissing a federal climate change lawsuit on constitutional grounds, found merit in the plaintiffs’ assertions. This ruling further signals that the era of fossil carbon fuels is coming to an end in America. The need for astroelectricity is now clear unless you want something like the disastrous Green New Deal. Continue Reading116 – A legal "warning shot across the bow" regarding our continued fossil carbon fuel use

114 – How America’s energy security relates to our prosperity

Five charts explain the past relationship between U.S. fossil fuel energy insecurity and America’s prosperity. This helps in understanding what America now needs to do to secure its future freedom and prosperity. Continue Reading114 – How America’s energy security relates to our prosperity

110 – Why a National Astroelectricity Program is needed to end America’s fossil fuel use

The “green new deal” environmental/energy proposals lack realism. A National Astroelectricity Program is needed to replace America’s fossil fuel use with space-based sustainable energy. This posting explains why and what this program would achieve. Continue Reading110 – Why a National Astroelectricity Program is needed to end America’s fossil fuel use

109 – Why expanding nuclear power is not a wise choice

109 – Why expanding nuclear power is not a wise choice. Nuclear fission energy is being advocated to use to replace fossil fuels. Is this the wise choice? The white paper, “Why expanding nuclear power is not a wise choice”, addresses this key question. Continue Reading109 – Why expanding nuclear power is not a wise choice

104 — What American engineers need to know about quickly transitioning to green energy

Post 104 addresses the engineering profession’s ethical obligation to inform American voters about quickly transitioning from fossil fuels to sustainable energy. Continue Reading104 — What American engineers need to know about quickly transitioning to green energy
