If a Black Hole was heading to Earth within 100 years, would scientist stop trying to invent things?

So the other week I was watching the 7 ways the world would end; #7 is near by Supernova (even 8,000 light years is too dangerously close), #6 is the chance of a Black Hole coming near us, one of… Continue Reading

Why can't solar and wind energy be stored in hydrogen?

One of the problems with solar/wind energy is that there is no easy way to store the energy produced. This means expensive, environment-destroying transmission lines have to be built from a solar / wind farm to the destination where the… Continue Reading

Some physics question?

Current solar-panel technology has the efficiency of converting 12% of the solar energy to electricity. Given that on a sunny day in Arizona the average solar radiation energy flux is 1.0 kW/m^2 , and that the area of Arizona is… Continue Reading

where can i find good information on solar energy?

for a science project, i need to answer the following questions; Are there any harmful wastes produced by this technology? Does this technology consume natural resources which can not be renewed? Will natural habitats be adversely affected by this technology?… Continue Reading

Geothermal relative to aquafer?

If a subdivision, i.e. 400 homes, were to use geothermal technology, both for heating and cooling, assuming 45 degrees north in the midwest United States, and assuming a substantial aquafer exists, (note, solar heating, and cooling, using Stirling technology), how… Continue Reading
