So even with 100% energy conversion we'd       only get one tenth of what ordinary solar panels (with 10% conversion       efficiency) will give us.              So I think most Dyson spheres (especially the cheaper ones) will not       harvest the neutrino energy at all!              --       Jos              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
