“Arrays of solar cells in space could generate electricity and transmit it to antennas on earth as microwave energy to be converted back into electricity.”

And when birds fly through those beams they’ll put KFC out of business

Supposedly, if the receiving antenna on earth is large enough, the microwave power density can be quite low -- not much more than the electronic energy that we are routinely surrounded by these days.

Your comment though gets at a larger point about frying certain types of "birds" below. With enough electric power, large, active, electronically scanned radar arrays in orbit can surveil and attack aircraft and missiles. That would inevitably have to be part of Trump's projected "golden dome" to defend the US homeland.
