    No, no, we just put a giant slip ring around the entire earth, so it can rotate with the earth. Or more seriously, they can use microwave power transmission to send the power back to earth. Except, then it would be better to just use satellites because you can lock those in geosynchronous orbits so you’re not only getting power in a tiny window each night.
