Marjorie Taylor Greene appeared to double down on her Hurricane Helene conspiracy theory over the weekend, following up a baseless claim that “they” can control the weather with an assertion that such a scheme might involve lasers.

    I like the way you think, but I don’t think Three Mile’s remaining reactor has the output you’d need.

    Actually, I wonder what the wattage of an average hurricane is. Somebody has to have done the math, probably Randall.

      yeah, to be real, I’m not convinced our total global generated power would even be on the same order of magnitude.

        I was thinking tera or exa watt output would be needed, which is less than our global energy consumption, but hilariously more than any individual power plant could produce, regardless of whether it’s fission, fusion, natural gas, or coal.

        An antimatter powered generator might be able to hit the mark, but good luck with that; both building an antimatter power plant, and creating enough antimatter in the first place
