That's right! The sun, the thing that prevents our entire planet from being a frozen rock, which imparts 44 quadrillion watts of energy on the Earth's surface, is just an elaborate NASA hoax!
They actually generate all that energy with...
...Uh...
???
Solar simulators are actually really cool, and it's a shame these goobers are too busy pretending to know everything, in order to feel special, to actually learn what they are.
(If someone hasn't heard of them, here's one of the biggest ones.)
Wow
They generate that power using the unlimited abundance of energy generated by the mental gymnastics of people like these
They actually generate the sun using solar power. Duh.
Thoughts and prayers, duh.
Another comment explains that it's solar powered.
If it's 44 quadrillion Watts per year, how many is it per second?
[Brb, doing more math.]
I see my comment flew over your head, although I appreciate all the info you shared. It's just that the sun doesn't deliver Watts per year or per second. The Watt is a unit of power and as such is already energy per time. Watts/year is a nonsense unit, at least in this context.
Actually I miss read my source. I was assuming the figure I was quoted was a watt-year.
