Google has been keen on Augmented Reality and stepping up investments in the area. Now, powered by its AR tech, it will bring 3D models of the planets, moons, and spacecraft to Google Search as well ...

Conventional solar panels cannot completely utilise sunlight throughout the day since they are stuck in one location. For ...

Chinese researchers have proposed a new methodology for designing utility-scale solar power projects in mountainous regions. They simulated a 386.4 MW solar farm near Pu’er, a city in southern China ...

"If our solar system is indeed moving this fast, we need to question fundamental assumptions about the large-scale structure of the universe." Astronomers have discovered that the solar system may be ...

Illustration: Xihe sun exploration satellite "With the help of the Xihe satellite, we can obtain full-disk solar spectra at more than 300 wavelength points simultaneously every 46 ...

Advances in robotics and additive manufacturing (3D printing) technologies are game-changing for space colonization. As a result, it has become economically feasible – as we attempt to demonstrate in ...

"The only way to see a scale model of the solar system," Wylie Overstreet says, "is to build one." So he and a group of friends did just that, tracing out the planets' orbits and then filming a ...

Shane Gehlert used a combination of NASA models and digital animation to create I Need Some Space, a brief educational tour of the planets, moons, and spacecraft spinning through our solar system. The ...
