But again, the question is why bother?

Well, to add to your list of Eternal Questions of the Past Century, you can
add that one. It's far older actually, and has been asked of air travel,
mountian climbing, exploring West Africa, Antartica, and probably bungy
jumping. The jury's still out on that last one. The simple answer is: because
it hasn't been done, or at least not by the person most wanting and able to
do it. A better answer is: to find out what can be learned along the way,
given that the destination is a new one. Most of science was built that way.

Apples and oranges; we already know what will happen if one were to build an
antenna from a superconductor.

Fire up EZNEC and set material loss to zero; done.

snip more apples and oranges
