Airplanes tend to stay in air only, unless there’s a WTC in the way.

I’m saying that unchecked bad actors are going to act bad. The American people don’t seem to know this, but the US hasn’t been isolationist for more than a century. Also, 2001.

Lalala… Can’t hear you, Putin, Xi, Jong-un, Chamenei… lalala

“Lo, see ye her, all gleamin’ in her plate, like some manner of queen, sittin’ high in her gilded carriage, thinkin’ herself bettr’ than us 'cause of her fine metal and steed of silver.”

Maybe take a look at the North Sea Link with 730 km length, 1.4 GW power rating and estimated costs of €2 billion, becoming operational in 2021.

The NSL has thus roughly

• one-sixth the length (730 km / 4300 km),
• half-ish the power rating (1.4 GW / 3 GW) and
• one-ninth the estimated costs (€2 Bn (or A$3.31 Bn) / A$30 Bn (or €18.12 Bn))

of the Australia-Asia Power Link.

Seems expensive to build above tried specifications.
