Have we humans gone completely mad?
Night light pollution is increasingly problematic and now they are coming up with horrors like this?

What do you guys think?

Bud:
I think Elon Musk is pulling his hair out how come he could miss such a great idea.

f4eru:
Nice idea, but not really feasible.
A huge mirror is a debris catcher and debris source, and will basically render it's own orbit useless really fast.

Kleinstein:
How bad the debis problem is depends on the orbit. To make the mirror work it would likely need an orbit close to the Geo-statinary and thus quite far out. 

Still not a good idea. The problem is more with too much heat from the sun, so it would more about a shade for the day.

Gyro:
Not satisfied with global warming, they want to experience local warming too.   :popcorn:
