Creating an energy that creates and uses its own energy?
SO here is my question, the sun is just a ball of energy that creates its own energy that it uses correct? Enough so that it will last 10 billion years right? So why hasn't anyone discovered a way to harness the suns energy in a way that we will have enough to last forever? The sun does create enough energy in one second to last for 500,000 years so why not try to get some of that or create something similar to power everything on earth?
Again I was just spitballin here so this may sound really dumb
