but humans obtain their watts very very inefficiently, so there's prob at least an order of magnitude to give for the same kind of system-level efficiency. Consider a field to feed a human vs a PV installation of the same physical size. And ofc there's all the other ways to obtain electricity...
The surprisingly efficient thing about biology is that it will take care of itself after released in an energy-dense environment...
Yes, whelks for example are known for their ability to flourish in supernovas.
That's ridiculous. Only tardigrades can survive supernovas.
If my company has its way, not for long ;)
