Right there, above, way above the solar system, way beyond our solar system.
Well, we're trying to give you the solar system in your grasp — (Laughter) — and we hope once it's there, you'll be able to learn for yourself what we've done out there, and what we're about to do.
We tested it many times over, and the next version we came up with was a box that kind of could trickle charge on solar energy, but most importantly connect to a car battery, because a car battery is a ubiquitous source of power in places where there's not enough electricity or erratic electricity.
Now, if you scale these snooker balls up to the size of the solar system, Einstein can still help you.
One such process I'd like to highlight are solar cells.
In 2015, we showed that with deliberate kinds of microstructures on top of a solar cell, we could take better advantage of this cooling effect to maintain a solar cell passively at a lower temperature.
Could we then make a nighttime power-generation device that generates useful amounts of electricity when solar cells don't work?
So when I did the calculations for the lunar data and the solar data at that location on Earth at the time of the incident of the shooting, all right, it was well past the end of civil twilight and there was no moon up that night.
Imagine that we build an enclosure where we put it just underwater, and we fill it with wastewater and some form of microalgae that produces oil, and we make it out of some kind of flexible material that moves with waves underwater, and the system that we're going to build, of course, will use solar energy to grow the algae, and they use CO2, which is good, and they produce oxygen as they grow.
They of course use solar energy to grow, and the wave energy on the surface provides energy for mixing the algae, and the temperature is controlled by the surrounding water temperature.
They're selling electricity back to the grid thanks to solar panels, reflective paint and more.
All you can see is a little bit of erosion down here by the Sun, has these solar storms, and that's erosion by solar radiation.
It is, arguably, the most audacious endeavor of that Edwardian golden age of exploration, and it seemed to me high time, given everything we have figured out in the century since from scurvy to solar panels, that it was high time someone had a go at finishing the job.
And we will probably put 1,800 megawatts of solar systems to produce 3.5 million cubic meters of water.
Number four: giant solar flares.
Solar flares are enormous magnetic outbursts from the Sun that bombard the Earth with high-speed subatomic particles.
You might say the solar states, the sun belt, we're going to be the states that produce solar energy for the country, and maybe Jerry Brown says, "Well, I'm going to create an industry cluster in California to be able to produce the solar panels so that we're not buying them from China but we're buying them from the U.S." In fact, every region of the country could do this.
You see, you've got solar and wind opportunity all across the nation.
You've been working on this solar company SolarCity.
EM: Well, as I mentioned earlier, we have to have sustainable electricity production as well as consumption, so I'm quite confident that the primary means of power generation will be solar.
CA: But in a gallon of gasoline, you have, effectively, thousands of years of sun power compressed into a small space, so it's hard to make the numbers work right now on solar, and to remotely compete with, for example, natural gas, fracked natural gas.
EM: Well actually, I'm confident that solar will beat everything, hands down, including natural gas.
CA: But you're not selling solar panels to consumers.
You can buy a solar system or you can lease a solar system.
And the thing about solar power is that it doesn't have any feed stock or operational costs, so once it's installed, it's just there.
CA: And you really picture a future where a majority of power in America, within a decade or two, or within your lifetime, it goes solar?
EM: I'm extremely confident that solar will be at least a plurality of power, and most likely a majority, and I predict it will be a plurality in less than 20 years.
I made that bet with someone —CA: Definition of plurality is? EM: More from solar than any other source.
EM: I made that bet, I think, two or three years ago, so in roughly 18 years, I think we'll see more power from solar than any other source.
As you can see, the solar panel charges the battery, and the battery supplies the power to the small indicator box.
