Re: Solar-to-laser + Multireflection means

Up, meta-google for solar-to-laser... 42% efficiency of energy conversion solar photonic power to laser beam.

From first glance it shows it`s tremendous terraforming potential. Except the aka "goldylock or ecosphere" zone, no matter how high or deep we make it using atmospheric design and manipulation... such close to 100% efficiency solar-to-laser convertors is what we need to either concentrate or deflect light from a body of realty interest in SolSys or beyond. Close to 100% efficuency solasers must be possible to be built with classical non-rare materials -- carbon or C+Si per instance...

Imagine solasers hovering as statites over the Sun, away from the System`s plane which to beam pseudowhite lasered light to distant bodies or instead of mirrorinng, shading or using difusing "lences" to re-direct excessive light from Mercury, Venus... closer planets, pointing it towards distant bodies...

Imagine entire star engulfed in Type III Dyson sphere -- thin as "butterfly wings", and as mass-consuming as medium size asteroid -- with radius , say of 10 000 000 km. Which turns the star from analogy of hyper-"campfire" or rather "wildfire" into colossal spherical array of pointed light sources.

Such way it is possible the whole system to be encompassed fully with lasered light "tramway".

The other key for efficient photonic momemntum usage is:

rotational:

One captured and lasered beam THUS could be used untill redshifted ad nauseam back&forth and sidways for transfering momentum in ANY direction wihin the SolSys.
