Imagine a field of solar panels floating silently in the endless day of Earth’s orbit. Unlike their terrestrial cousins, this space-based solar array never faces nighttime, clouds, or atmospheric ...

By protecting the surface during heating, the team reduced the chance that tiny flaws would grow into long-term failures.

Solar-powered charging could make electric vehicles affordable and practical across Africa sooner than many experts expected.
