if we can build in space affordably, based on the model of this company and why this company exists, is we could have solar power transmitted into radio waves beamed down to a rectenna that's right by a power plant and ported into the power lines so that we still are seeing a return on investment in the current structure.
And the current structure is a power plant with all these power lines that are very expensive. Some are underground, some are above ground. But if the American people could look at how much money taxpayers and private companies put into the power grid and the delivery of electricity, it is astounding.

Water's the same way, and we can get into that because I was the president of Genesis Systems, which is a water generator company, but pulling water out of the air affordably. So now you can have a water generator, like an air conditioner, any spot on the planet without the need for electricity, solar power alone. We can get to the water, but back to electricity.

What I think will happen in the first days of solar power from space is, A power company will have a big power plant that is a huge investment. They haven't seen the full return on investment of that coal power plant or nuclear power plant and all the power lines that go to all the homes that that power plant serves.

But they'll put up a rectenna because the cost will be low enough that they can invest in that and say, okay, here's another source of power in case the power plant goes down and we will port that electricity into the power lines But eventually, what we may see is what was revealed when Edison and Tesla were first delivering electricity to the human race.

And you touched on this earlier in our conversation where you said, well, the Rockefellers, the way to monetize or to be able to monitor how much electricity you're using and getting money from you was a dial that was run by the electrical wire that was going through it. And I could come and read the meter at your house and say, you owe me a hundred bucks because how much electricity you used.

They, back in the day, didn't know how to monetize radio waves. Well, we know how to monetize them now. You know, your cell phone. We know exactly how much data you use, and I know exactly how much to charge you for it. Or your satellite TV. Or your, you know, your Starlink antenna getting broadband from Elon Musk's constellation. So we know how to monetize radio waves. That's a no-brainer.

But when Edison and Tesla were doing their little competition, Edison won out initially because it was easy to monetize his. Tesla was, I think, the superior thinker, and AC power and DC power are thanks to Edison and Tesla, okay? But there was something else Tesla did that looked like magic that did not get put into play, and it was the beaming of power, okay?
