subject: Sun Energy And Solar Panels [print this page] The sun is to the highest degree gripping parts of our lives. It is the most luminous object in our spatial neighborhood, so much so that while its in our line of sight, we cant even see the other objects in the sky. It has been an object of frighten, and even worship, since antiquity. Ra, the most known ancient god, was connected to the sun, and history scientists suppose that the construction of the pyramids; as well as other ancient landmarks such as Stonehenge, are all based on the suns path through the sky all over the year.
The sun does so much for life on earth (people included) that we tend to take it for granted. For instance, without the suns power, our water cycle wouldn't exist, the temperatures on this planet would be so low we would not be able to live, and even little things, such as the wind, would not exist the way they do.
Nevertheless, the exponential growth in human requirement of energy over the past century has highlighted a new potential use for the sun: energy from the sun. Theres the obvious sun connection, but there is also the fact that people has been harnessing the power of sunlight just about as long as we could think about.
As the 90s drew on, other factors came together to both increase the productivity of solar energy and lower its cost. Moreover Google company introduced solar energy in the offices and became green!
