    They show the Golden Gate Bridge with solar panels on it.

    Maybe the highways/interstates are the same.

      I was rewatching strange new worlds and in the first episode pike is on his horse riding past a bunch of wind turbines.

      Why do they have wind turbines, they have antimatter reactors, what are the wind turbines contributing?

        I doubt they use antimatter reactors planetside - very risky, and antimatter don’t come cheap. They likely rely on fusion more than anything.

        But hey, the wind is free. Why wouldn’t you use it?
