This allows them to provide concentrated solar heat without active solar tracking, as well as increased absorbance from indirect sources (such as scattered light in cloudy weather). The method I use ...

A Chinese research team has developed a "lunar brick-making machine" that can produce bricks from moon soil, bringing the sci ...

The Global Times learned Tuesday from the Deep Space Exploration Lab (DSEL) that prototypes of the in-situ lunar soil 3D printing system and the lunar soil water ice thermal extraction system, which ...

These include parabolic troughs, Fresnel lenses, and other solar concentrators. Once the sunlight is focused, it becomes strong enough to be used for heating, cooking, removing salt from seawater ...

"Initially, it'll just be a new tool, an augmentation to the existing toolbelt of astronomical observatories. But ultimately, it should scale least expensively to the smallest or more distant ...

Increasing solar power generation in the United States by 15% could lead to an annual reduction of 8.54 million metric tons ...

Luminescent solar concentrators (LSCs) are a promising class of devices designed to harvest diffuse solar radiation by employing a transparent matrix embedded with luminescent materials. These ...

Experts advise people with serious interest in home solar to act quickly and consider their choices carefully to avoid any headaches.
