          That’s actually not the worst. It seems doable to produce that much square area of solar panels, even for a civilization like us. We need about 500 000 square kilometers of solar panels on the Earth’s surface to power our global electrical needs. This is within the realm of possibility

          The more tricky part is to actually position it around the sun, that part is what makes it impossible for our current tech level and space infrastructure
