So we tried to come up with a way of making a non tracking collector, a collector that would gather much more than one degree of light, with no moving parts.

So I thought of an idea what if we collect the sun with a large reflector like I had been thinking about way back when, when I was in high school but maybe with modern technology we could make a cheaper, large collector, concentrate it to a small converter, and then the conversion device wouldn't have to be as expensive, because it's much smaller, rather than solar cells, which have to be covering the entire surface area that you want to gather sun from.

Solar cells collect light for four and a half hours though.

It's this non tracking collector with these six tuba like horns, and each of them collect light in the following way if the sunlight strikes right here, it might bounce right to the center, the hot spot, directly, but if the sun is off axis and comes from the side, it might hit two places and take two bounces.

And this was a company where I built parabolas, I took metal shop, and I remember walking into metal shop building parabolas and Stirling engines.

Traditionally, concentrators look like this.

Basically, oil is solar energy concentrate.

How does nature gather the sun's energy?

So, about two and a half hours of the day we could collect with a stationary component.

We tried to come up with a way to use genetic algorithms to create a new type of concentrator.

And then we poured a big foundation for passive solar.

The petals track and the engine gets the concentrated sunlight, take that heat and turn it into electricity.

But geothermal, concentrating solar, advanced photovoltaics, efficiency and conservation.

But better what is more important is that they would have to concentrate sunlight.

I sold the plans for this engine and for this dish in the back of Popular Science magazine, for four dollars each.

During the day, the Nutmeg collects energy from solar panels on the roof of the wheelhouse, and from a 450 watt turbine up the mast.

More robust solar array designs (i.e. collector networks) can minimize the effects of damage from collisions with small particles.

There are thermocouples on the engine little sensors that detect the heat when the sunlight strikes them.

And now, this is a picture of atoms in the Sun's atmosphere absorbing light.

Shining upwards.

We needed to beat solar cells.

It's been pounded for a billion years with a lot of energy to make it have all that energy contained in it.

This is actually a picture of the spectrum of the Sun.

So they can collect sunlight from a big area.

It will have a three axis stabilized bus with two panels of solar arrays and batteries.

SOHO (Solar and Heliospheric Observatory) designed to observe the sun from its deep interior to its outer regions and the solar wind

I CALL TO witness the sun and his early morning splendour,

By oath of the sun and its light

By the sun and his morning brightness

By the sun and his morning bright ness,

And by the sun and its brightness

By the sun and its radiance.

By the sun and its heat and brightness,

By the sun and his brightness,

By the sun and her forenoon splendour,

By the sun and its midmorning,

By the sun and its brightness

By the sun and its noon time brightness,

I swear by the sun and its brilliance,

By the sun and its rising brightness

By the Sun and his (glorious) splendour

I've got solar PV on my roof.
