Scientists make nighttime power by beaming heat into space
Scientists are learning how to turn the chill of outer space into a quiet source of electricity, using the night sky itself as a heat sink. By carefully managing how surfaces shed heat after dark, ...
Engineers have built a modern Stirling engine that quietly turns the cold of outer space into steady mechanical power, using the night sky as a heat sink instead of a fuel tank. By radiating heat away ...
Why outer space systems need high power density. Why power-generation systems in outer space are important. Generating electricity at nighttime using renewable resources has become extremely important ...
