Forgive my noobness and possibly the wrong forum selection.
As we live within collecting distance of an energy abundant star, would it not be possible to harness that energy, through delicately polished mirrors mounted on satellites and then direct those satellites at a few key points around the globe, to turn seawater into drinkable water and provide power at the same time?
I'm sure there are reasons why it hasnt been done as yet, but after much fictional reading of conversion into microwave energy (resulting in loss of energy)I just wondered why it hasn't been done/considered?
If it has been considered i apologise for wasting the communities time. :)
