Oxford scientists’ new light-absorbing material can turn everyday objects into solar panels

Oxford scientists’ new light-absorbing material can turn everyday objects into solar panels

Oxford University scientists may have solved one of the greatest hindrances of expanding access to solar energy. Scientists from the universitys physics department have created an ultra-thin layer of material that can be applied to the exterior of objects with sunlight access in place of bulky silicon-based solar panels. The ultra-thin and flexible film is

Sun unleashes X-class solar flare, blasts 3rd coronal mass ejection toward Earth in a week (video)

Sun unleashes X-class solar flare, blasts 3rd coronal mass ejection toward Earth in a week (video)

There are now three different coronal mass ejections (CMEs) heading toward our planet, which could mean increased opportunities this weekend to see the aurora across the northern U.S. and Europe. CMEs are massive blasts of magnetic field and plasma that originate from solar flares from the sun, which can lead to powerful geomagnetic storms for

On a rural Hawaiian island, solar provides a path to energy sovereignty

On a rural Hawaiian island, solar provides a path to energy sovereignty

Like many homesteaders on the island of Molokaʻi, Kailana Place grew up off-grid, on 40 acres of family land designated for Native Hawaiians. Living in repurposed school buses surrounded by fields of red volcanic clay and kiawe trees “was a glamping lifestyle,” joked the social worker and mother of three.  Three years ago, the fuels

New York and Idaho May See Aurora This Week After Powerful Solar Flares

Two huge explosions on the surface of the sun could result in northern lights being seen across some northern U.S. states. Two M-class solar flares were spotted bursting out of two sunspots named AR3774 and AR3777, at least one of which may have sent out massive clouds of solar plasma in its wake. These coronal
