Chemists Describe Solar Energy Progress And Challenges, Including The ‘Artificial Leaf’
Scientists are making progress toward development of an “artificial leaf” that mimics a real leaf’s chemical magic with photosynthesis — but instead converts sunlight and water into a liquid fuel such as methanol for cars and trucks.

‘Ultra-primitive’ Particles Found In Comet Dust
Dust samples collected from the stratosphere have yielded an unexpectedly rich trove of relicts from the ancient cosmos, scientists report. The dust includes preSolar grains and material from interstellar molecular clouds. This “ultra-primitive” material likely wafted into the atmosphere after the Earth passed through the trail of an Earth-crossing comet in 2003, giving scientists a rare opportunity to study cometary dust in the laboratory.

Installed Cost Of Solar Photovoltaic Systems In United States Fell In 2008
Researchers released a new study on the installed costs of Solar photovoltaic (PV) power systems in the US, showing that the average cost of these systems declined by more than 30 percent from 1998 to 2008. Within the last year of this period, costs fell by more than 4 percent.
