Japan plans giant 11,000-km solar ring around the Moon to send limitless energy to Earth; how futuristic project would work

Japan's Shimizu Corporation proposes a colossal Lunar Solar Ring encircling the Moon to beam clean energy to Earth. This ambitious concept, still in its proposal stage, envisions a 11,000 km belt of solar panels harnessing continuous sunlight, free from atmospheric interference. If realized, it could offer a virtually limitless power source, potentially ending reliance on fossil fuels.
