A new development from the researchers of Sandia National Laboratories has pushed innovation in explorations using a Solar-powered balloon. This balloon is rather cheap to manufacture, at only $50 to ...
[Becky Stern] likes to harness the power of the Sun. Most of us will immediately think of solar cells and other exotic solar energy techniques. But [Becky] shows how to make a hot air balloon using ...
Researchers in China and Sweden have found that a balloon can beat solar panels. By launching a balloon-integrated photovoltaic system, there is proof that this photovoltaic balloon can take flight ...
When most of us think balloons, we think, “I never should have had children.” But these solar balloons are a lot more promising than their carnival counterparts. Constructed of photovoltaic fabric, ...
