- MIT students making solar power realistic
- While most solar power installations involving standard photovoltaic cells are simply too expensive to be practical for most installations, a group of MIT graduate students just completed the first "parabolic" solar energy collector. Our algebra and pre-calculus students will remember that beams of light reflected from a parabola will...
