Please note that this website is currently a work in progress! Lots of interesting data and statistics to come.
I don't know. Giant space lasers is usually how supervillains get started
yes it can. The key tech needed is simply an engineering issue of scaling up production on two-photon lithography. From there, launch costs plummet.
It's really not worth it. The conversion to different forms of energy in order to transmit the power and then reintegrate it into the grid creates a giant loss of power by the time it's usable on Earth.
