Solar cells made of moon dust could power future space exploration
The same dirt that clings to astronauts’ boots may one day keep their lights on, say scientists. German researchers have created solar cells made out of simulated moon dust. The team explained that the cells convert sunlight into energy efficiently,
Perovskite solar cells are highly efficient and low cost in production. However, they still lack stability over the decades under real weather conditions. An international research collaboration ...
As the electrons flow through the cell, they generate electricity. On a much larger scale, solar-thermal power plants employ various techniques to concentrate the sun's energy as a heat source.
