Is there a problem with the Earth's gravitational pull?
And then what? You drive the solar panels at 88 mph?
No they don't have to move, you just string a cable across the street and run the delorean under the cable at the right time to harness the power.
I mean, it's like they've never seen it done before.
Um, Of course. Don't you time travel??
Great Scott!
Not enough for the DeLorean to go 88 mph

Do these still work for anyone?
They just missed their target of adding enough to power a flux capacitor…
They better watch out for the Libyans.
Run for it, Marty!
Remake of Back To The Future with a solar powered DeLorean, it’d still work.
Marty: This sucker’s electrical. But the solar panels were destroyed so we need to replace them to generate the 1.21 gigawatts of electricity I need Doc: 1.21 Gigawatts! 1.21 gigawatts. Great Scott Marty: What the hell is a gigawatt? Doc: How could I have been so careless? Tom, how am I going to generate that kind of power, it can’t be done, it can’t. Marty: Doc, look, all we need is new solar panels. Doc: I’m sure that in 2025, you can pick up solar panels at every Walmart, but in 1955, we’d need more than 86 billion solar cells which would cost more than 2 trillion dollars. Marty, I’m sorry but you’re stuck here Marty: Whoa, whoa, Doc? Stuck here? I can’t be stuck here, I got a life in 2025. I got a folder of white hot memes.
Tom
Already casting Tom Holland as Marty?
He says that looking at a portrait of Thomas Edison
Love to find others so into bttf as I am :)
Here in the neighbor country of Austria, the solar growth is limited by the installation capacity currently. There are backlogs of two years for nearly all installation companies, as far as I've heard. Prices are also crazy high due to this.
