Reflect Orbital promises “sunlight after dark” through mirrors placed in Earth’s orbit. You can buy light, block light, redirect light, simply through an app on your phone.
Join Stan in the meteorologist’s room. A world of lust, money, and men. Strap in. They’re harvesting sunshine, and there’s a storm brewing…
Through drag, dance, live video, and slapstick humor, Reed Rushes deep-dives into the world of venture capitalists and their environmental impact, using this research to build a unique universe.
