power beaming

Power beaming appears on WindowsForum.com through coverage of the UK's ARIA Enduring Atmospheric Platforms programme, a £70 million, three-and-a-half-year effort involving 18 teams working on high-altitude pseudo-satellites. The tagged discussion focuses on the harder engineering problem behind those stratospheric platforms: keeping a communications payload powered and on station over Britain for a full week, including experiments that send energy upward from the ground. As reported by The Register and detailed by ARIA, the programme is framed as narrow technology proof rather than a near-term national broadband rollout, so the tag reflects early-stage research news rather than consumer hardware or Windows software.
