Bigger is better when it comes to space-based solar panels - but rockets have a very limited amount of room, so getting them into orbit can be a challenge...
Bigger is better when it comes to solar panels, but rockets have a very limited amount of space, so getting them into orbit can be a challenge. So where do NASA researchers turn when looking for solutions to their packing...
One of the big downsides of solar power is how dependent it is on local weather conditions. If it's rainy or overcast, you can't harvest much energy during the day. During winter, the shortened hours of daylight mean solar...
It has long been theorized that the best way to harness the sun's energy is to launch solar power systems into orbit. This week, the National Space Society (NSS) announced a new international initiative in which the US, India...
