Solar Power Beamed from Satellities

In an experiment that tested technology that could one day be used to transmit solar energy from satellites to Earth, researchers beamed solar energy from one Hawaiian island to another, across a distance of 92 miles.

The $1 million experiment was sponsored by the Discovery Channel, which aired on an episodeĀ of the Project Earth show on Friday, September 19th. Project Earth is about Eight crazy experiments bold enough to change the world.
