Bluenergy SolarWind enters Santa Fe incubator
(New Mexico Business Weekly) Bluenergy SolarWind Inc., a German company that produces solar and wind energy devices, has set up shop at the Santa Fe Business Incubator. Bluenergy has developed a new wind turbine that also captures solar energy, says co-founder Elmar Willmes. The turbine is vertical, like most commercial ones, but instead of propellers it has broad wings that provide space to attach flexible solar cells to them, Willmes says. "It's a brand new instrument that we developed in Germany," Willmes says.
Upgraded Space Station May Rival Venus in Night Sky
(FOX News) The biggest and brightest man-made object orbiting the Earth just got bigger and brighter. Astronauts on board the international space station unfurled a new pair of solar-energy panels that sprout out of the end of a new 17.5-ton truss section, which was brought up by the space shuttle Atlantis. They are the largest solar panels ever taken to space; fully unfolded, they reach a length of 240 feet (73 meters).
Astronauts Wrap Up Final Spacewalk
(Guardian Unlimited) Two astronauts unpacked a new radiator Friday and perform some fix-it tasks outside the international space station before wrapping up the final spacewalk of shuttle Atlantis' 11-day mission. Spacewalkers Heidemarie Stefanyshyn-Piper and Joe Tanner also picked up a science experiment, replaced an antenna and took video of the space shuttle's heat shield during their 6 hour and 42 minutes in space. "We have to say, what a wonderful job you both did today," Pam Melroy in Mission Control told them after they were back inside the space station's airlock. The radiator will be a key part of the space station's solar energy arrays, dissipating the heat generated by the solar panels' electronics.
