SUN POWER offers a vision of hope & a plan to begin the long journey to energy independence & global healing for the 21st century. In this startling new book, aerospace visionary Ralph Nansen reveals a grand but elegant solution to the problems plaguing our energy-hungry world - a plan for capturing the vast power of our sun in space using solar power satellites to provide abundant, low-cost, nonpolluting electric energy for all humanity for as long as the sun shines. Written for the general public, this book will change how we look at energy & will ultimately benefit every person on the earth.
