It would be better, faster and cheaper to just eliminate the proglodytes.
Maybe they should go up to the Sun in a rocket ship to build the massive shade. To protect themselves, of course they will have to go at night when it is cooler.
There! That’s my scientific theory and it makes as much sense as their theory.
Other than the total destruction of life on earth, what could go wrong?
It will cool the Earth while simultaneously boosting solar panel output and food production! /s
Dangerous lunatics.
Climate Change is a Hoax, A F’n HOAX!
This idea is a tacet admission that climate change is brought about by the sun.
How dare he??? We must get rid of fossil fuels IMMEDIATELY!!! CANCEL HIM!!!

You first, Istvan.
For sure this astronomer is on the take just like Xiden or most lefties, they of all organisms that have the capability to think in the Galaxy or Universe know that 1/100 of a percent of CO2 is not going to burn our planet up in a few short years. Perhaps this liar should study volcanism for awhile looking over a cliff on a real windy day in the Circle of Fire.
Vast project, half-vast idea.
The very mechanics of placing a huge Mylar film across the the rays of the sun that would shade a significant portion of the planet earth are incomprehensible. How would it be launched, how would it be spread out effectively, and what prevents the rays of the sun for simply propelling the opened sheet like a huge sail, dissipating its original purpose entirely?
So many questions and so little critical thinking.
Of course we are, to a degree (no pun intended) as both federal taxpayers and Hawaiian taxpayers are on the hook for at least a percentage of the school’s budget. Perhaps this lying clown is unaware of our $40 TRILLION nation debt before the end of this decade will destroy our nation in matter of years rather a matter of thousands of centuries.
I’m pretty sure they’ll spend a ton of money on it before it goes the way of Solyndra
You sneak up on the sun and deploy it at night
Only the low IQ insane would try these schemes.
Popular Science used to be a credible publication,,,, many years ago.
People might be educated but I don’t think they understand aspect ratio whilst standing here on this rock and looking into outer space...
From 2004, a federal grant...

Check out the amount.
It’s good to have low friends in high places.
Would a frontal lobotomy help correct this writer’s thinking? Would changing the name of this magazine to “Popular Rubbish” be a corrective action?
