Dear All,
I suggest to visit website www.oterpowers.com for
getting good basic knowledge of wind power and its
application.
Thanks

That monitoring station suggested to me that such a flying platform could
be used for many things. These days quick response computer and cell phone
transmissions might be a market. One company in Florida is proposing a
platform flying 24/7 at 60 to 70 thousand feet for such markets. I

A few thoughts and questions:
A kite at 30K feet would have at least 40K feet of tether, about 12 km
of cable. I know there now exist carbon fiber cored, aluminum wrapped,
power lines that are both stronger and lighter than copper or the

Really? Genuine scam? I read about it in Wired or Pop Sci, figured it
was just a master's thesis, or some defense proposal.

The jet stream doesn't lay in a river bed like water. It undulates constantly and has seasonal migration. Nor is it pretty much everywhere. Pilots know and use this knowledge.
Except for Federal preserves your vacant desert doesn't exist.

Ok one last question about wind farms. I told someone that wind farms
have the _potential_ of changing the weather if there is enough energy

Wind farms work in the 100 meters closest to the earth. Due to interaction with the ground it is relatively low energy compared to 1km and higher above the ground. In other words it is in the noise in terms of measurement. If you are worried about windturbines then you should worry
I suspect that large arrays of wind farms would have an effect similar
to forests. We've chopped down a lot of forests over tha last few hundred
years, so this doesn't worry me.
Tidal power would slow the earth's rotation a little faster than it is
slowing anyway from friction - probably not a
