solar power

Vision of future solar cell fabrication on the Moon, utilizing raw regolith. Shown are robots that source raw regolith and bring it to a production facility, which fabricates perovskite-based moon solar cells. Later automated rovers or astronauts install the produced solar cells to power future Moon-habitats or even cities.

In a surprising finding, light can make water evaporate without heat

MIT engineers have developed a design for a system that efficiently harnesses the sun’s heat to split water and generate hydrogen.

MIT design would harness 40% of the sun’s heat to produce clean hydrogen fuel

Tapping the Sun for renewable hydrogen
