The image is correct, but the numbers in the explanation are too big.

The image currently says a collector would be 1.0 x 10⁷ km in diameter = 10 Gm

My calculations are as follows

1 AU radius = 149.6 Gm; Circumference = 2×π×149.6 Gm = 940 Gm

3 degrees = 3 / 360.

940 Gm × 3 / 360 = 7.833 Gm.

Then the estimate is more than 27% too big. Each collector must be smaller than 7.833 Gm.
