Roland Winston's Use Of Light Components In Solar Energy

Luis Walter Alvarez was born on June 13th in the year 1911 in San Francisco but at that time no one knew he was going to be a world renowned physicist. As a adolescent, his love for science, technology and machines was evident, but no one guessed he would make something out of it. He and his father (Walter C. Alvarez) built a radio when he was eleven, this was when the radio was still a new invention. Graduating from The University of Chicago in 1932 and earning his phD in 1936 was not the end of his scientific interest. Luis Walter Alvarez continued to study science and physics. He was credited with many necessary discoveries about subatomic particles for which he earned the Nobel Prize in physics. His work did not stop there. He was a co-developer in the creation of the “ground-control approach system” for aircraft during the 1940’s. Luis Walter Alverez had a very significant role in the development Manhattan Project, in which he suggested the technique used for the detonation of an atomic bomb. He was member of the National Inventor's Hall of Fame. On top of all this he held ownership of the patents for over 30 inventions including radar systems and the bubble chamber.

     Solar energy is the most ancient kind of energy found on earth, for it is as old as the sun. "Solar" means from the sun. The earth is only one of the many planets which is bathed in the sun's overflowing energy. Every second the world receives 95.8 trillion watts of power…just think about that for a minute. Think about how much power the earth just received in the time it took you to read this sentence? It is well beyond the amount of power used in one day. It has the potential to satisfy all our energy needs forever without ever having to use the pollutive fossil fuels ever again. "The problem however, does not lie in the limited source, as do fossil fuels, but in harnessing

Solar panels don’t burn, instead they harness the suns power which turns it into an electrical current.

Winston, thus far, hasn’t had very many experiences that have really captured his interest or instilled a desire for more information; however, this even completely takes over him. This not only shows that Oceania is becoming a robotic society in that nothing interesting happens, it’s all routine, but it shows how important the dark-haired girl will be to Winston later on in the novel.

Winston became curious but had a sense of excitement because, during his whole life in Elysium, he has never seen this part of the station. The door opens into a large, dark room. As they walk into the room, the lights turn on, exposing the large telescope. Winston's eyes widen and wondered as to why Jack brought him to the Observatory. Jack kneels and positions his glasses on his face. He says, “You took these because you wanted to see what was out there. Well, see for yourself.” The dome ceiling splits into half, allowing light to infiltrate the entirety of the room. Winston could only see a blue sphere with large patches of a mixture of brown and green and bodies of white swirls. The sphere was surrounded by a blue aura, making the blue sphere seem like it was angelic paradise. Winston gaze couldn’t escape the blue body. He has never seen something quite like it and it made him appreciate everything about it. “See I know you always was curious and always wanted to explore the unknown. This is why I’m gonna introduce you our home Earth.”, Jack said. Winston’s attention was completely taken by Earth as Jack see his just widen. Jack reminisces, “See Winston the Earth is a beautiful place, but it such beauty was ruined.” Winton’s gaze breaks and brings his attention back to Jack. Jack continues, “Well we had a long history being on Earth you see? Year and Years of civilization and

This also shows how Winston almost felt as though his life was not filled with so many rules and laws, like society were not constantly being controlled by Big Brother. His way of thinking and acting on how he thinks causes him to stand out among the

In 1915, the 5th November in Tonopah, Nevada; Hugh Bradner was born. Brother to Mead Bradner, and children to both Donald Bradner and Agnes Bradner (maiden name Mead). He and his brother were raised in Findlay, Ohio, and had done most schooling there. After high school, Hugh decided to study at Miami University in 1936. Hugh chose to study in the fields of Engineering, geophysics, and physics. Further on in life, he had received his doctorate from California Institute of Technology in 1941. He had written a thesis on “Electron-optical of the photoelectric effect” under guidance from William Houston.

In this modern fast paced world that we live in, there are many issues that are looked over, energy is one of these. As a world, we are dependant on dwindling fossil fuel supplies and take for granted electricity, oil, and gas. There are four completely renewable sources of energy around us that should be used and developed, they are: wind, growing plants, flowing water, and the sun. These sources of energy are the ones we should be tapping, because they are reliable and renewable. Harnessing the suns energy is the most certain and ultimate energy source. Looking at a brief history and some facts about solar energy, a glimpse of the future can be seen, a future not dependant on

As Winston is looking through Mr. Charrington’s shop he decides to but a small, blue paperweight with a piece of coral at the center of it. He buys the paperweight because it is a connection to the past, when the party didn’t control everyone’s thoughts and lives. Winston wants to know what the

He pondered and fathered many ideas. To this day, he is still in outer space, but this time through the lens of a powerful telescope taking pictures of the sun’s corona. Loren still goes to work at MSU to input and organize data and his work is considered world class. To Loren there is no bounds to what can be accomplished. And he is indeed accomplished! Throughout his life he delivered countless presentations and special events and has over 160 publications, leading to over 20 awards and honors. All of these accomplishments focus on generating new ideas and exploring new concepts.

Bill’s love for science was cultivated at a young age due to his parent’s influence. He was born on November 27th, 1955 to Jacqueline and Edwin Nye, who were both science and math enthusiasts. Jacqueline’s skill in math lead her to become a codebreaker during WWII, while Edwin was held for four years in a Japanese internment camp. Since there was no electricity in the camps, it was here that he developed a love for sundials that was consequently inherited by Bill as well. Later in his life, Nye attended Sidewell Friends High School before enrolling at Cornell University and acquiring a degree in mechanical engineering (“Bill”, A&E). It was at Cornell that Bill was a student of Carl Sagan, who he has stated as being an important inspiration

In order for one to further understand the importance of solar energy, the problem of global warming must be explained. As defined by Webster’s Dictionary, “Global Warming” is an increase in the earth’s average atmospheric temperature that causes corresponding changes in climate and that may result from the greenhouse effect. With an average increase in atmospheric temperatures, our planet is slowly deteriorating. In order to stall or halt this global destruction, countries must turn to solar energy as a cleaner alternative to the depletion of fossil fuels. Solar energy creates a homeostasis for the climate. Due to its ability to decrease global climate changes, solar power can address global warming in several ways.

Solar energy is the most plentiful and purist renewable energy source available. Because it is completely natural, it is considered to be a clean energy source. It does not disrupt the environment or threaten the Eco-systems the way oil and some other energy sources tend to. Nor does it cause greenhouse gases, air or water pollution. Solar energy is an immensely important aspect of life and has been since the beginning of time. Increasingly, we are learning how to harness this important resource and use it to replace traditional energy sources. Modern technology can utilize this energy in a variety of ways, such as; generating electricity, providing light or a comfortable interior environment, and heating water for domestic, industrial, or commercial use. One day solar energy may well become our primary form of energy. This would lead to a clean environment, less money spent on utilities, and a healthier world. It is highly important because it has the potential to allow technology and nature to co-exist peacefully.

Solar energy and its use isn’t new to the world. It has been used by various societies beginning from 7thCentury B.C, when the sun’s heat was concentrated by glass and mirrors to light fires. Today, we have everything from solar-powered buildings to solar-powered vehicles. By and large solar technology has some environmental, economic, psychological and ethical implications for our society. Actions taken by companies and individuals to increase the use of solar technology will create good local jobs, improve our environment and reduce our dependence on foreign oil while doing what’s ethical and moral for our society.
