    If I could find it and it was as durable as regular paint, I would paint everything that white that converts visible light into infrared that isn’t blocked by the atmosphere. Yeet that heat right the fuck back into space damnit!

      That reminds me of the barium sulfate paint that was discovered a couple years ago. It’s so incredibly good at reflecting/moving heat that it could even cool whatever it’s painted on. I’ll have to find a source on this again…

      Edit: Here’s one video where they talk about it.
