Description
Find out if the power of the Sun can be harnessed on a scale that provides us with the energy that we need for the future. This book looks at turning sunlight into electricity; heating homes as the ancient Romans did; powering space probes and Mars landers; cars that run on sunlight not petrol; and using energy without damage to the environment.
