If you've ever flown in an aircraft in the United States and you've ever looked out the window, you'd be like, oh, wow, look, there's a lot of land you could put solar on, especially west of like 110.
Yeah.

Does it need to be flat or no?
No, it doesn't matter.
Like do trees grow on mountain slopes?
So it doesn't matter.
And the total amount of land, so just for reference, Nevada is something like 80 million acres or something like that.
So just Nevada, which is like 90% federal land, is 80 million acres.
And I would never say that we should sacrifice Nevada to the AI and pave the entirety of Nevada from one wall to the other.
But I just saw a bunch of things in my feed the last couple of days that like,
You know, Vegas is falling apart.
Well, like, the boomers are retiring.
No one goes there anymore.
People would go to see, like, the 100 million acres of solar.
Yeah, okay.
So 5 gigawatt plant.
So even if you did it in Nevada?
You can do it anywhere.
