China has announced plans to build a giant solar power space station, which will be lifted into orbit piece by piece using the nation's brand-new heavy lift rockets.

    That is very helpful. Now I want to know silly stuff like, what happens if you fly through the beam, and could you in theory reaim the array towards a completely different receiver plant, and be able to shift power around as needed (albeit very slowly)

      The intensity of the waves is very low in absolute terms, so they’re not harmful.

      Microwave beaming—using radio-frequency phased array antennas with intensity levels below mid-day sun-light—is deemed less harmful, with potential physiological effects manageable through thermoregulation.
