Is the Chinese 'moon' the NAZI 'sun-gun'?
The Chinese want to launch a satellite in 2020 that will illuminate the streets at night by reflecting sunlight to the Earth. The NAZIs wanted to use similar technology to burn cities.
The Chinese say this will be a low orbit, 310 mi, satellite which can be used to illuminate an area 50 miles. This will first be used over the city of Chengdu in 2020 and possibly three more satellites will be launched in 2022. The reason the Chinese give is it will save roughly 1.2B Yuan in electricity costs and help first responders see better at night.
The NAZIs wanted to implement this same idea to have a mirror which could be used to burn cities much the same way a magnifying glass is used to burn ants.
Eminent German rocket scientist Hermann Oberth came up with the space mirror concept in 1923, according NASA. Oberth originally intended the space mirror for peaceful purposes such as illuminating ports and thawing frozen rivers, but the concept may have taken on its "Death Star" undertones with the rise of Nazism in the 1930s.
The NAZI mirror started as a concept to illuminate the streets just like the Chinese 'moon', so what is China really up to?
