WTF? It does not have to be on the terminator, and I recommend you stop seizing on isolated technical terms to imply you know more about the topic than you do. There is no One Way that solar must be set up. I favour geosynchronous polar orbits precisely to maintina constancy of supply and obviate shadowing. This is kiddie stuff, considering that all of these matters were discussed in detail when Clarke published his proposal for polar sats in 1950. In other words, this is Old News, and a problem long solved.

Setting aside this pseudo-scientific gibberish....

As I re-posted, I'm not concerned about the solar panels leading to mass starvation due to screening the sun, I'm concerned about the mandatory cuts to greenhouse gas emissions curtailing food production.

Thats nice. You're concerned. So am I. What has this got to do with your fucked up claim of conspiracy theories? Do you think that starvation arising from change in growing conditions due to global warming is a SUPERIOR approach to some sort of managed transition? Your alleged "concern" is so much crocodile tears.
