Solar Panels: Draining The Sun One Photon At A Time
Someone's solar science is a bit... eclipsed by misinformation! The comment claiming solar panels would "drain energy from the sun" and make it "burn out" in 400 years is peak scientific confusion. Solar panels don't siphon energy from our star like some cosmic vampire - they simply capture a tiny fraction of the photons already streaming toward Earth. Our sun produces about 3.8 × 10^26 watts continuously and will keep fusion-partying for another 5 billion years regardless of our puny human infrastructure. The real cherry on top? The moose walking on what appears to be poorly photoshopped "solar roadways" that were never actually viable technology to begin with. Double scientific facepalm!
