Ouch.
The largest nuke the US ever set off was around 15 megatons.
Noodling out around 500,00 kilotons per ounce into 1 billion tons and the surface are of the earth, we get about one 15 MT nuke over every square yard of the earth's surface (m/l).
Looks like we will still have a planet of sorts, and clearly the energy isn't evenly distributed, but it's going to be an EXTREMELY rough 3 minutes. Everywhere.
I note the 15 MT test was detectable via seismograph from Eniwetok atoll to California, the shock waves transmitted through the earth's structure from the 'sun zap device' are going to trigger a phase of extreme vulcanism, globally.
And burn off all the atmosphere.
And the ocean.
Curiously, the mass of the collector and the focusing device will essentially be 'felt' as focused in the direction of the sun from earth.
It looks pretty thick and meaty. It's additional gravitational pull will DRASTICALLY alter the earth's orbit. I'm thinking we impact the thing pretty quick.
That won't be pretty either.

The granting of a pardon is an imputation of guilt, and the acceptance a confession of it.
