      Bigger than Asia and smaller than the Mongol empire at its peak.

      Also, if you covered the whole thing in solar panels (which would be an odd thing to do) it would give 1000x more energy than the plant needs although I dont know how you would get the energy from the moon to earth, maybe a very long wire?
