The sun already beams power down from space.
Yes, but not quickly enough to meet our power needs for advanced machines like electric vehicles over the long run. That's why the air force is developing this satellite technology. Why shouldn't we all benefit from it, like we did with GPS?
That would be 1000 times harder than GPS, but I'd like to see it attempted. Lots of cool spin-offs from that like anti-projectile laser beams, but also things like blinding/death rays :P
