Solar Power is far …
Solar Power is far more powerful than your TV is telling you… forget solar panels just magnify the suns light onto a tank of water and you have a steam generating turbine making power for homes just like that. No waste non polluting just power for nothing!
i so totally agree …
i so totally agree with u
Over 2000 F ? What …
Over 2000 F ? What was the temperature of that, to melt the steel?
This is amazing. We can use this one, for people in death row. Stand up and just melt these bad people. No more electric chair or injections.

lol! And USA has thousands of them. Talk about scary

It’s a giant Magnifying glass tbh
INCREDIBLE! I see a …
INCREDIBLE! I see a lot of potential for energy in this, but seeing that steel melting is probably the coolest thing I’ve ever seen, solar or not! It’s just plain freaky!

imagine touching that if it wasnt at so high temperatures, that would feel amazing.
Thanks for posting …
Thanks for posting this, very well done.
The only problem is …
The only problem is, if the enemy ship is just outside of the focal point, it no longer retains its heat making properties, just kinda blinds them with brightness
Very intelligent …

It would be so cool for Iran to say “Suprise! No uranium here at all but we now unveil a solar electric array that could power to whole E.U.” and just laugh at paranoid republicans.

There’s a difference between being skeptical and being a statist. A skeptic refuses to get starry-eyed over things unlikely to work; a statist clings to the past.
Personally, I foresee nuclear energy becoming the replacement to fossil fuels. Compact fuel, vast resources, massive output, can be put almost anywhere. What’s not to love?
I have full …
I have full instructions on how to build very cheap solar panel and wind mill for home. FULL step-by-step guide.
i know that all …
i know that all metal melts its just coming from solar power, thats ing crazy
lots of ifs? why do …
lots of ifs? why do people like need to doubt things, be part of the solution instead of the problem.
