American chemist Dr. Daniel Nocera has devoted his career to finding this alternative energy source using photosynthesis as his inspiration. Photosynthesis‚ the conversion of solar energy into chemical energy stored in the bonds of glucose‚ is arguably one of the most important chemical reactions on earth. The maintenance of life on earth‚ our food‚ oxygen‚ and fossil fuels depend upon photosynthesis. In this process water and carbon dioxide are converted to oxygen and glucose using energy from the sun

Solar System Our solar neighborhood is an exciting place. The Solar System is full of planets‚ moons‚ asteroids‚ comets‚ minor planets‚ and many other exciting objects. Learn about Io‚ the explosive moon that orbits the planet Jupiter‚ or explore the gigantic canyons and deserts on Mars. How Did The Solar System form? This is an important question‚ and one that is difficult for scientists to understand. After all‚ the creation of our Solar System took place billions of years before there

Solar System About 4‚700 million years ago‚ the Solar System was just a spinning disc of dust and gas. The dust began to collect together and our Sun formed at the centre. Around Sun‚ lumps of rock joined up to form smaller bodies and‚ like the Sun‚ they heated up. But because they were smaller they soon cooled down and became planets. Sun accounts for 99.85 per cent of mass of the solar system. About 1.3 billion earths would fit inside the sun. The solar system consists of the Sun; the nine planets
