A place for majestic STEMLORD peacocking, as well as memes about the realities of working in a lab.

Rules
This is a science community. We use the Dawkins definition of meme.
"Dyson Spheres? Look, playing with sunlight and mirrors was a fun side project, but you want to know a much more advanced method of generating power?"
"Please dont...."
"Thats right! By hurling entire water worlds into a star, we then capture the released steam which powers our gravitationally locked dynamo network."
Throwing water into a star wouldn't get you steam, it'd just fuel the star XD
You gotta seal the planet in a heat-safe bag, and make sure to not drop it out of orbit, or you'll lose the water, as you say.
Nah. You'll probably want several shells operating above any sane temperature for steam. You don't want to lose that extremely high temperature by just heating water to 600 °C or so.
