What if..we could harness the fire of the sun somehow?


We could all have a piece of the sun floating in a little containment sphere that holds a flame and could be a personal source of endless solar power.

No longer would we have to compete with each other for fossil fuels. Everyone would be happy.


But how would we harness it?

Simple! We send a rocket and a team of drillmen to drill into the surface of the sun in thermosuits to keep them cool. Poke a whole deep enough and extract the fire, put them into a flask or whatever and come back!

What do you think?

I think that this is some low level bait.

I like the sun

Are you high or are you genuinely retarded?

Sun

what
yea me too. There is a lot of untapped potential
no, why do you say that?

...

user google how stars work and realise how retarded you're being.

If bait, 4/10 made me reply.

Fucking Star Wars TFA. Soon this will be what people actually believe.

I don't need google to tell me how they work. I can see it in the sky everyday and it makes me hot ass fuck.


Hot things=something burning

Burning=fire.

Yes! that is an awesome idea my friend. Why don't you go and shove it up your ass?

...

>Hot things=something burning
>Burning=fire.

No way this isnt bait

the sun only sustains it self for as long as it does because of it's sheer size. a "sun" small enough to keep in a house would burn itself out too quickly to be useful, and then it would blow your house up when it dies

>fire

The sun is made of lava you retard

interesting might work

Yea but you could refuel it with some firewoood or something
lol

lava you say ? wow , you must be special kind of stupid

He could be right. The surface of the sun is similar to the appearance of lava on our planet and it is hot. It could be a feasible claim.


And no man has been to the sun yet. To say what it is not made up of is impossible since we have yet to witness.

...

is a good job men

Praise the Sun!

The heat from the sun comes from nuclear fusion taking place in it's core and super heated gases called Plasma. It would be impossible to, "take out a little piece of burning" from the sun without completely annihilating whatever you are using to drill into the sun. Of which, is MILLIONS of degrees. I normally just lurk but I had to at least inform you about your flawed logic. Keep dreaming though.

And harvesting the power of the sun would be possible if our civilization could construct a Dyson Sphere around the sun. Not the vacuum part, something that was mentioned in an episode of Star Trek I believe. Google it!

...

You're retarded

"We have to go to the sun to know what it really is" fucking go back to the bronze age you ignoramus

I don't think you need any more fire mang.

rofl u fuking retards, you could mount a sort kind of pump like a drain or somthing almost (like the same one that u have under the toilet) and put it on the sun and therfore extract the warmth from sun into a big tank station on earth.

you're trying way too hard it made you a retard for thinking that was good

bait or retarded?

No, my friend. It is YOu who are retarded. You fail to provide evidence to validate your argument. Lurk more.
Hmm. This sounds pretty good. Glad you finally came out of your comfort zone user!

But this is plasma. you see the bright colors and such? The sun is much, much different.

To say the sun is the same material as this would be..strange. And yes, that dyson sphere sounds excellent.! Can't wait for NASA to craft it!

rolf are u some sort of special snow flake?? if usa could nuke and kill 124000 people in japan 70 years ago then think what they could do with tehconlogy now. putting a slang onto the sun and extracting the suns wartm onto the earth in a tube where they farmers put cow shit in (but now they have warmth from the sun instead of cowshit)

yeah the sun might be warmer then a hot summer day in arizona but we can build warmth immune robots that will do the work for us. get fucking educated before u try to put down my opions and resarch again u fuckhead

you keep ruining it man

Kids in grade 10 use spectrometers, go back to highschool and actually listen instead of watching youporn in the back of the class

All these people saying what the sun is... We cant know until we get there, but using context clues we can assume that it is most likely made of some kind of condensed lava. Assuming this, OP's idea seems quite plausible, and if I were in nasa I would definitely consider it as a legitimate means of portable energy and warmth

He is not entierly wrong. My name is John Neumeier and i have a college degree in astronmy and chemistry aswell as science. The tube thing to extract warmth from the sun might be happening in 10 years.

We're already harnessing the fire of the Sun. It's called Earth's ecosystem, which is almost entirely solar-powered (minus geothermal energy).

>evil corporations
>money
>power and control
>etc
all reasons to explain why this already is possible but will not happen.

Yes but what OP wants is a way so everybody can have their own personal sun. Imagine being able to have light and warmth even during nighttime!

I sleep at night, user. I don't need light when I sleep. And I already get my warmth from blankets.

I think the real answer to harnessing the power of the sun is findin out how to perform nuclear fusion with hydrogen atoms. The sheer amount of energy from that would be enough to power a hell of a lot of things. Not to mention by product is helium, so it'd be great for parties.

Imagine how cozy a blanket made of suns would be

How about we try to convert mass into energy. That's more of a viable option than having our own sun pets.

Yes but while you are sleeping the other side of the planet is still awake. I think its called the time zone. So this invention would mostly benefit the homies on that side of the Earth

wtf are you going on about?

We don't need no fucking nuclear fusion. What the fuck you think this is? Dragon ball?


And the fuck you on about "helium"? You wanna blow some balloons user? Then I'll give you some plastic to blow.

The Sun jealously guards its secrets. Are you a bad enough dude to wrest the secret of nuclear fusion from its radiant grip?

I think the flames would be awfully distracting. I'm ticklish.

What do you mean "other side of earth"?

The earth only faces one way. The "other side" is void.

We've already harnessed the power of the sun 70 years ago you fuckin ignorant millennial retarded faggot. Fuck me this generation is fuckin stupid.

You godless son of a bitch. Everyone knows that the sun was made by the lord and all his wisdom. It's the true form of the heart of our one true Saviour. a heart that can't be broken. Now get on your knees and beg for the lords forgiveness while i rape your asshole with my dick of righteousness

You want to give the power of the sun to a bunch of violent retards? Nope not going to happend supressing this tech

Oh yeah, I totally forgot about all those SOLAR BOMBS they detonated back then. Must be because they called them ATOM BOMBS. Because maybe it had something to do with ATOMS. But I guess you're here to tell us how we're all wrong. So go ahead, explain again how those SUN BOMBS worked.

Protip: the Sun is huge. Atoms are tiny. You can't even.

The sun is a miasma Of incandescent plasma The sun's not simply made out of gas
No, no, no
The sun is a quagmire, It's not made of fire Forget what you've been told in the past!
Plasma! - Electrons are free~ A fourth state of matter
Not gas, not liquid, not solid

kek Sun Pets will be all the rage in a few hundred years your own baseball-sized Sun in your house. That is until the fuckers start going red giant and becoming the size of cities. And then collapsing in on themselves and becoming black holes, only one of which will destroy the Earth and there will be millions, billions of Sun Pets. They will each have a set of beady little eyes like a Mario Sun. Do not invest in Sun Pets Products.

That version of the song really was just shittier.

OP you retard. Sending drillmen with drills to the sun to harvest a giant smoldering ball of plasma? I fukkin retard.

The sheer heat radiating a thousand miles away from the son would evaporate the space ship. The only way to get close is if we collided a ball of material as-cold-as-hot as the sun, into the sun.

And since we can only reach 0 kelvin at this time, it's going to be at least a couple of years to get into the negative kelvin range. After that, yeah drills or pick axes or whatever you faglord. Then we can melt the pieces of the sun in containers back on earth.

the sun's power is being harvested by everything around it naturally since it was formed
and we already "use" the sun for electricity like solar panels

Negative Kelvin ranges? Wow you're retarded

wow isn't sciency stuff fun!?

i know, it sucked, but it is closer to the truth than the previous one

gj, show him how shitty his beliefs are!

Forget fire Sun Pets when will they be releasing Ice Sun Pets. Water Suns? Rock Suns? Air Suns? Earth Suns?

"The power of the Sun in the palm of my hand."

Well, I don't know, his beliefs might be true. His dick of righteousness just reminded me of the Lord's big stiff slippery rod of judgement.

Just send an ice sun to neutralize the fire sun

The side where people arent sleeping, therefore needing the invention for light

This could work op... We could call it... Solar power

Guy named Otto Cocktavius winds up with eight penises. What are the odds?

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dyson_sphere

That's a shitty name. "Solar" sounds nothing like "sun" and "power" is too abstract. Call 'em Sun Shards.

You are fuckin idiot. I'm serious. If you're not just baiting me you are a fuckin idiot and I fear for the future of this planet.

Or nuclear fusion.

i like that name
nukilar fjuusion
let us call it that

That's too complicated. How about HOT FUEL. It's bold and brash and it would look great on a t shirt.

I whistled for the Sun, and when it came near
The license plate said "hot" and it had a Dyson sphere
If anything I could say this star was rare
But I thought "man, forget it", yo homes to Altair!

too counry like... it lacks certain finesse

theoretically if you could put piece of the sun, small enough to fit in a jar, in a jar. it would output less energy than a piece of your own body that size.

No really user, do go on. Explain to me how your picture demonstrates that we harnessed the power of the Sun by detonating explosives on Earth. Go ahead.

Lol you idiot

How about Sun Go Stuff? That or Brawndo. Brawndo is what plants crave.

So you're saying all of us on Earth together would actually be hotter than the sun? I don't think so.

Nice bait mate.

your math and scaling skills are not of the highest rankings i presume.

Take some mason jars to the sun, and let us know how that works for you.

XD LOOK GUYS THIS EXPLODY LOOK LIKE DA SUN HEHEHEHE ATOMIC BOBM IS A MINISUN CONFIRMED????

>what if... we could harness the fire of the sun
Its called solar power faggot.

Well I hope you learned your lesson and won't use vague circumlocutions like "the power of the sun" when you mean to say "nuclear fusion". One is a thing, the other is a process. Keep your categories in order.

I think you're trolling because I doubt you're this stupid but I'll answer anyways. Nuclear weapons work using the same process as that which makes the sun hot. The center of a nuclear detonation is as hot or hotter than the sun. There is no physical limit to the size of a nuclear weapon. Not sure if I can explain it any simpler than that.

too much arguing not enough praising

You're a fuckin idiot.

Op doesnt realize that the sun isnt made of fire.

I think his brain an heroed

...

>There is no physical limit to the size of a nuclear weapon.
So if you made a nuclear weapon as big as the sun, would it explode or would it be a sun? Why hasn't the sun exploded yet then?

I say fuckin praise it

Whatever you say, person with the malfunctioning g key. I bow to your superior wisdom.

I don't know user. Ask the nuclear physicist who is no doubt monitoring this thread. He (could not possibly be a she) will do the math and give you an answer.

OP here.

So it is settled then.

How about we send a petition to NASA to begin working on that contraption?

Nothing to do with me. It will take you seconds to look this shit up and stop sounding like an fuckin idiot.
