NASA sending solar power generator developed at Ben-Gurion U to space station

A new solar power generator prototype developed by Ben-Gurion University of the Negev (BGU) and research teams in the United States, will be deployed on the first 2020 NASA flight launch to the International Space Station.

According to research published in Optics Express, the compact, microconcentrator photovoltaic system could provide unprecedented watt per kilogram of power critical to lowering costs for private space flight.

As the total costs of a launch are decreasing, solar power systems now represent a larger fraction than ever of total system cost. Optical concentration can improve the efficiency and reduce photovoltaic power costs, but has traditionally been too bulky, massive and unreliable for space use.

Together with U.S. colleagues, Prof. (Emer.) Jeffrey Gordon of the BGU Alexandre Yersin Department of Solar Energy and Environmental Physics, Jacob Blaustein Institutes for Desert Research, developed this first-generation prototype (1.7 mm wide) that is slightly thicker than a sheet of paper (.10 mm) and slightly larger than a U.S. quarter.

“These results lay the groundwork for future space microconcentrator photovoltaic systems and establish a realistic path to exceed 350 w/kg specific power at more than 33% power conversion efficiency by scaling down to even smaller microcells,” the researchers say. “These could serve as a drop-in replacement for existing space solar cells at a substantially lower cost.”

A second generation of more efficient solar cells now being fabricated at the U.S. Naval Research Labs is only 0.17 mm per side, 1.0 mm thick and will increase specific power even further. If successful, future arrays will be planned for private space initiatives, as well as space agencies pursuing new missions that require high power for electric propulsion and deep space missions, including to Jupiter and Saturn.

A nice little summary of stars that passed nearby, or that may yet pass by, and their affects on our solar system...

Thank you for your endless curiosity Dr. Hawking.

I hope the new year puts the light into our eyes, allows the embers of the fire to glow within our spirits, and brings clarity to our minds, willing and making good things happen that bring joy to our lives and the lives of others we meet along the way.

I have really enjoyed my journey on becoming a #newly established #scifiauthor focusing on the #spaceopera genre. I enjoy my fan base and newly created friends and acquaintances. The universe awaits us all and I thank you for your support.

Pathway to the Stars: Part 2, Eliza Williams Audiobook Released!

Narrator Allison Taylor (Instagram: @alliptaylor) and Author Matthew J Opdyke have collaborated again following their previous release of the contemporary science fiction audiobook, Pathway to the Stars: Part 1, Vesha Celeste, and it is now available on Audible, Amazon, and iTunes.

In Pathway to the Stars: Part 2, Eliza Williams, Eliza and Yesha journey through their young lives together, sharing great ideas. “If we want to traverse the cosmos, we will need to be bringers of life, beauty inside and out, abundance, and have the ability to bridge understanding between multiple civilizations, so we can tackle even greater issues together.

"We need to understand how dark energy and dark matter work, find ways to slow down the expansion, or cause the Universe to breathe just enough to protect itself and all of life along with it. We need everyone willing."

Experience the early life of the scientific hero, Eliza Williams, and through her the beginning of a new era. Vesha Celeste continues her Virtual Universe training witnessing Eliza's life with experiential immersion, the added advantages of time-dilation, neural linking, tactile-reference, and more.

Engage yourself in the critical details, ups, and downs, leading to Eliza's transformation and the formation of her new organization. Eliza's first biopods for physiological and neurological optimizations will be among her primary vehicles driving advances and designs positively affecting human progress solar-system-wide. There is a lot for Vesha to learn, and through this, she will become phenomenal in intellect and abilities. Will Eliza be able to release everything right away? What measures will she take to protect humanity from her powerful tools if they were to get into the wrong hands?
