There are much more problems when it comes to solar satellites. Ease of repair being just the first one that comes to mind. People are averse to nuclear mostly because of ignorance.

Nuclear is the only solution that can provide a constant and steady level of energy at what we need 24/7 to hit meet our demand.

Lots of flying debris to hit panels out there and everyone keeps dancing around the reality that nuclear is our best option for clean power. If we bothered to recycle spent fuel so we’re not just using 7% or so and casting the rest aside, all the better. Then again, we’re the same bunch of idiots that think Chernobyl is a real risk in the west and shut down Yucca mountain.
