Contents Introduction Solar energy has experienced an impressive technological shift. While early solar technologies consisted of small-scale photovoltaic (PV) cells‚ recent technologies are represented by solar concentrated power (CSP) and also by large-scale PV systems that feed into electricity grids. The costs of solar energy technologies have dropped substantially over the last 30 years. The rapid expansion of the solar energy market can be attributed to a number of supportive

Towards the very end of our solar system is a dwarf planet named Pluto. The existence of the unknown planet was first proposed by astronomer Percival Lowell in 1905‚ who thought that the wobbles in the orbit of Neptune and Uranus were probably caused by the gravitational pull of an unknown planet. After calculating the approximate location‚ he looked for more than a decade without any success. About 25 years later‚ it was discovered by an American astronomer named Clyde Tombaugh. The surface temperature
