Solar panels would maybe produce only 1000 HP (ruff calculation) and these ships use nearly 100,000 HP. Scrub the panels although having them may open doors of support, but panels 1% of needs
Would work out interestingly by sheer chance there would be 10 ton per square my approx which is what my hypothetic wheel could carry.
So a trolley 30 + wheels wide and 300 or so length ways.
Each wheel contains a electric hub motor than can move 10 ton...say a how many HP motor??
100 ??
Its coming together.
