Is the trajectory parabolic or hyperbolic? Could it be a messenger from Laniakea Supercluster?

Nuclear power or massive release of CO2?
What's it going to be here?

Electric vehicles, Earthships, preta terra, and solar that's too cheap to meter.

I like solar but it's one weakness is lack of sun.

Moon power would be helium 3 nuclear fusion.

How do you guys feel about controlled burns? It seems like Arizona and other states have forest fires every year. Different tribes and departments like to set controlled burns, attempting to prevent forest fires.
Of course, some get out of control, and then they are just forest fires.
Environmentalists oppose burning trees.
Dad used to push to chip the wood and sell it, but a woman I know says the real problem is the buildup of pine needles. After eight or ten years there are so many dried pine needles that any spark can start a fire.
Send a caravan of street sweepers through the forest and then compost the pine needles?

Fusion is, at this point, speculative. Moon power is distributed evenly around the planet with the phase peaking once or twice a day. It is most easily available with large bodies of water.
Quote:
Tides are the rise and fall of sea levels caused by the combined effects of the gravitational forces exerted by the Moon and the Sun and the rotation of Earth.
The times and amplitude of tides at any given locale are influenced by the alignment of the Sun and Moon, by the pattern of tides in the deep ocean, by the amphidromic systems of the oceans, and the shape of the coastline and near-shore bathymetry (see Timing). Some shorelines experience a semi-diurnal tide—two nearly equal high and low tides each day. Other locations experience a diurnal tide—only one high and low tide each day. A "mixed tide"—two uneven tides a day, or one high and one low—is also possible.[1][2][3]

Controlled burns are what used to happen until man came along and decided that forest fires are bad and started putting them all out immediately.
Now we let dead tree debris build up as fast it can rot.
