    Space-based solar power (SBSP) is the concept of collecting solar power in space for use on Earth. It has been in research since the early 1970s. SSPS consists of a space-based power generation/transmission facility that gathers sunlight‚ converts it into microwaves or laser beams‚ and transmits those to the ground; and a power receiving facility on the ground. Space-based solar power essentially consists of three elements: • a means of collecting solar power in space‚ for example via solar cells or

    if UV Radiation induced a mutation in the DNA of Serratia Marcescens and prevented the production of the red pigment called Prodigiosin. Hypothesis: Maybe the disappearance of red color in Serratia Marcescens is caused by the UV light which induces mutations in its DNA and is known as a common mutagen. Prediction: If UV light mutates the DNA of Serratia Marcescens then the red pigment colonies of the bacteria will no longer be produced. Independent Variable: Ultra Violet Radiation Dependent
