It wont allow me to place any more signs, so i'll put more info here: The receivers on Earth will be carefully positioned to have the most efficient and cost effective setup, and the microwave beaming system will be carefully aimed.

    @luki147 ur post sounds so smart that im surprised how badly you butchered the word centrifugal~ lol

    So you want us all to build a giant structure on the moon?

    @MattF1, it's a good concept, but earth has an atmosphere. Not many microwaves would make it through our atmosphere, and for the cos, its not worth it. The most feasible way is, suprisingly, build a cable. The higher you build, the more support you need, however, at a certain height, centripical force starts to take effect. This pulls upwards on the building, and by the time we reach the moon, the centripical force has cancled out gravity enough that we can build a building to the moon using materials we have today, like carbon nanotubes. This make space elevators possible.

    awesome, 1+, and that is a good point konlo. although it is a very low chance, it can still happen

    what if a tiny little rock hit the solar panels? they could swing wildly and end up targeting the beams at a forest, causing a fire, or what if an airplane was hit with the beam? this would just be too dangerous and costly.

    what happens if the microwave beam misses, and beams another place?, it might burn people from the intense rays, and may aso cause a power shut down....

    but this is a neat idea!!!

    you would need to make the solar arrays micrometeorite resistant, light weight, because the problem is the cost of the feul of launching the rockets to the moon. not only that, there are just many prolems with the money in the economy, so you would need to focus on micrometeorite resistance and fuel and transportation problems when thios project is real.
