We all see the sun light every day‚ once you step outside on a hot day you fell its power and how destructive and life giving it is. Solar energy is the energy of the future‚ the main problem we have is making sure it is efficient and cheap. It seems that it would be simple to capture the sun’s rays and make electricity‚ but the material that “captures” the rays is very expensive due to it having to be a really pure material; if we use materials that are not as “pure” the electric current can’t go

Earth is the only planet in our solar system that sustains life‚ and therefore one of the most intriguing planets because of its capabilities. Each of the seven other planets that orbit the same sun as Earth is interesting in its own way. Some planets share similar characteristics to those found on Earth‚ while other planets are completely different. An analysis of these terrestrial bodies‚ using comparative planetology‚ will allow us examine these qualities. However‚ before beginning such a process

"An Earth-like planet spotted outside our solar system is the first found that could support liquid water and harbor life." This comes from a NASA researcher. New life on other planets could mean so much for the future of humans. The only way to keep finding out new information about our solar system and beyond is to spend money to research it. The only way to prove that there is life on other planets is to conduct

Electricity generated by burning fossil fuels such as coal‚ oil and natural gas‚ emits carbon dioxide‚ nitrogen oxides and sulfur oxides -- gases scientists believe contribute to climate change. Solar thermal (heat) energy is a carbon-free‚ renewable alternative to the power we generate with fossil fuels like coal and gas. This isn’t a thing of the future‚ either. Between 1984 and 1991‚ the United States built nine such plants in California’s Mojave

Advantages Solar cells provide cost effective solutions to energy problems in places where there is no mains electricity. Solar cells are also totally silent and non-polluting. As they have no moving parts they require little maintenance and have a long lifetime. Compared to other renewable sources they also possess many advantages; wind and water power rely on turbines which are noisy‚ expensive and liable to breaking down. Rooftop power is a good way of supplying energy to a growing community
