Incredible exchange between Secretary Chris Wright and @jason about solar and Elon Musk. What do you think? — “So Elon has it completely wrong?” “He has a wildly exaggerated view of where solar and batteries will go. I’ll make a bet that solar never gets to 10% of global energy.”

"Once you understand Kardashev Scale, it becomes utterly obvious that essentially all energy generation will be solar. A relatively small corner of Texas or New Mexico can easily serve all US electricity." 一 Elon Musk

🚨NEWS: TRUMP CAMP SOFTENS ON SOLAR POWER – SHIFT DRIVEN BY ENERGY SECURITY & MUSK’S INFLUENCE 🇺🇸 $TSLA ✅ Recent Pro-Solar Signals from Trump-Aligned Figures • Katie Miller (“MAGA Mom” podcaster): Posted on X that “solar is the energy of the future” and “solar is more important to America than coal” • U.S. Energy Secretary Chris Wright: Recently acknowledged solar’s commercial role in adding affordable, reliable energy to the grid • Nevada Republican Governor Joe Lombardo: Revived three blocked solar projects (Libra Solar, Dry Lake East, Boulder Solar III) that the Trump administration had previously halted • President Trump: Shared a podcast clip on Truth Social in January stating solar reduces electricity bills for Americans ✅ Broader Context & Contrast • Last year, Trump called renewable energy a “green scam” • Current shift is not driven by climate change or environmental concerns • Primary motivations: U.S. energy security, grid reliability, and reducing electricity costs • Solar is now viewed as a practical part of the energy mix – especially subsidy-free, price-competitive utility-scale solar ✅ Key Accelerators of the Change • Elon Musk’s announcement of massive U.S. solar manufacturing expansion (targeting 200 GW annual capacity – far exceeding current U.S. installation rate of 40–50 GW/year) • Musk’s close alignment with Trump circle (former DOGE co-lead) makes pro-solar stance easier for Trump allies to adopt • Ongoing U.S.-Iran conflict highlighting fossil fuel price volatility and energy supply risks ✅ Market & Policy Implications • Rising oil & gas prices from Middle East tensions increase attractiveness of renewables • Trump administration appears to be moving toward pragmatic energy policy that embraces solar for cost reduction and grid stability – especially as AI/data center power demand surges

The Sun has not entered a Grand Solar Minimum since the start of the Industrial and Technological Age. Grand Solar Minima have always caused problems on Earth due to low solar activity and increased cosmic radiation. The elites expect a Grand Solar Minimum to occur between 2030 and 2040, and this time it will be coupled with a significantly reduced magnetic field, which will only amplify the catastrophic changes. That's why there are wars and why Trump wants Greenland. I have revealed some of the safer places that the elites are preparing.

Even BlackRock CEO Larry Fink now admits that “transitioning” to solar and wind will cause a global power shortage—after spending years pressuring companies to do exactly that. The "transition" he advanced has already sabotaged our power supply and raised our electricity bills.

🚨 SCIENTISTS MAY HAVE FOUND A WAY TO “BOTTLE THE SUN.” Researchers at UC Santa Barbara created a new type of liquid molecular battery that stores sunlight directly inside chemical bonds then releases the energy later as heat. In simple terms: It works like a rechargeable solar fuel. The material absorbs sunlight during the day… stores the energy inside tiny molecules… then releases it later even years afterward. Researchers say the system can: • store more energy per kilogram than lithium-ion batteries • remain stable for years • repeatedly recharge and discharge • even generate enough heat to boil water The fascinating part? The molecule changes shape when exposed to sunlight similar to how photochromic sunglasses darken outdoors. But instead of storing darkness… It stores solar energy itself. Why this matters: One of the biggest problems with renewable energy is storage. Solar panels stop producing power at night. Traditional batteries are expensive, heavy, and degrade over time. But molecular solar thermal storage could eventually allow: • off-grid heating • nighttime solar energy use • portable thermal batteries • rooftop solar heat storage • new forms of renewable infrastructure Humanity may be moving toward a future where sunlight itself becomes a storable material. Follow for more future physics and technology breakthroughs.

The biblical prophecy about the sun turning dark is not about a solar eclipse; it is about a Grand Solar Minimum and global cooling. During a Grand Solar Minimum the sun is less active, the Earth is bombarded with cosmic rays, volcanic activity increases, and clouds cover the sky. The sun turning dark is mentioned in Isaiah 13:10, Ezekiel 32:7, Joel 2:10, 2:31, 3:15, Matthew 24:29, and Revelation 6:12. These passages refer to past and future civilizational collapses. The elites expect the next Grand Solar Minimum between 2030–2040, or by 2050 at the latest. That is why they are preparing while keeping you in the dark.

What a convenient and smart way to install solar panels while still maintaining the beauty and aesthetics of the building. With such approach, clean energy and beautiful architecture can truly go hand in hand.

Great interview between Lex Fridman and Elon Musk Here’s my favorite part. In all seriousness, no matter what you think of Elon Musk, listening to him speak is incredibly educational, and will certainly make you laugh. We need more conversations. We need more dialogue and debate. We need more people getting together and talking rather than yelling.

From the Moon, a lunar eclipse looks like a total solar eclipse, but it lasts a LOT longer. For NASA's Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter, that means the team has to plan carefully for the 4 hours that the spacecraft — and its solar panels — will be in the dark and the cold. 🌑🛰 1/3

There has not been a Grand Solar Minima since we developed modern technology. This time it will be coupled with a geomagnetic excursion and a weakened magnetic field, and that is the main reason why the elites are building underground bunkers and want to move data centers underwater. If you combine a Grand Solar Minimum with a weakened Earth’s magnetic field, as during a geomagnetic excursion, the effects multiply not linearly but exponentially, because both shields weaken at the same time. Low solar activity (low solar magnetic field) plus a weak magnetosphere equals maximum cosmic-ray penetration and unstable atmospheric and tectonic systems. Even without crustal movement and the giant flood, civilization will collapse. There will be sudden global cooling, tectonic and volcanic activity, famine, plagues, and increased cosmic radiation causing mutations and diseases. The only safe place will be underground.
