    SOLAR BATTERIES
    Do you know that the sun's rays have
    been used to heat furnaces or to boil
    water over many years? Different forms
    of reflectors have been used for this pur-
    pose. Some of them shaped like a bowl
    fire. One of the most intriguing ways of
    using the sun's energy is seen in the mod-
    ern Solar batteries which are fitted into
    space satellites like the one seen here.
    When light falls on to a plate of pure
    SILICON electrons are set free. The
    surface of the plate is treated with:
    BORON and an electric current is set up
    by the electrons, which is collected by
    wires and used to work the instruments
