Could do it by hand, if you’re patient enough. Again: not like the satellite has much say in the matter. It’s gonna be at a specific point, at a specific time. You don’t even need to cover the mirrors, since the sun won’t be at the right angle for all of them to converge until that intended moment.
If the beam is powerful enough, you’d just aim beforehand and let the satellite slide into it. Not like the fucker can dodge.
Honestly the control electronics are not why this super doesn’t work.
Yeah, you just need a bunch of geared stepper motors and a big computer. The atmosphere is the reason it almost certainly won’t work
