Setting up Solar Panel Systems for Beginners

For many homesteaders, farmers and people who live off the grid an alternative power source is the perfect way to keep cost down. Wile still being able to provide the necessary power for special projects.

This set of videos was designed to help the person who is new to solar power get to know what goes into building one. The videos were created and posted by LDS Reliance.

The presenter describes in easy to understand terms how to set up a low power solar panel so that a beginner would be able to it for themselves. All of the information is presented in a way that makes it easier to follow and understand.

Benefits of watching the video DIY Project: Setting up Solar Panel Systems for Beginners

Learn the basics of setting up a small scale Solar power panel for your home.
The project describes everything that is necessary for you to have on hand in order to follow the video.
It also describes all of the steps you will need to follow to get from start to finish of the project.
The video is the perfect way for the presenter to get all of the information out to as many people as possible.

Space junk is a huge problem. In fact, if we don't do something about the more than 20,000 objects, from defunct satellites to paint chips, that are orbiting Earth, we may one day be unable to leave the planet at all.

In the UK, a team at Airbus is developing a charmingly method of removing large pieces of junk from orbit: a giant harpoon.

The harpoon, which is about a meter long, would be attached via a strong tether to a spacecraft which would follow it as it punctured space trash. The spacecraft would then tow the junk back down to Earth, where it would burn up in the atmosphere.

To test their invention, the researchers have been shooting their harpoon in the lab, using compressed air, at sheets of metal that are 3 cm thick aluminum composite honeycomb panels.

The harpoon goes through these panels like a hot knife through butter. once the tip is inside, it has a set of barbs that open up and stop the harpoon from coming back out. Then the satellite is de-tumbled with a tether on the other end.

Many of these targets will be tumbling and if a robotic arm was used, that involves a lot of quite complex motions to follow the target. Whereas, with the harpoon, all what have to be dome is sit a distance away, wait for the target to rotate underneath, and at the right moment fire the harpoon. And because it's a really quick event, it takes out a lot of the complexity.

The biggest quarry out there for this new invention is the broken Envisat Earth observation satellite, an eight ton hunk of metal that's floated uselessly for six years now.

Airbus' harpoon will soon be put to the test. A miniature version of the device will be sent into space next month with a mission by RemoveDebris, another group focused on the space junk problem. This test mission will release its own piece of junk and then try using both a net and the harpoon to capture it.

The big harpoon still needs more testing. But if it works, it could free up a significant amount of space in Earth's orbit.

This is my first  post for Asgardia.   I have just joined this community a day ago.  I forward to being a part of this undertaking.  I have been a space exploration enthusiast and a life long science fiction fan all my life.  I plan post articles of interest to fellow asgardians on this site.

Asgardia crypto currency we need to think about it. Using blockchain we can build a supply of ICO in asgardia what about your opinion and we introduce the world crypto market and give all the asgardia civilization till now 20000 Asgardia Coins for free and rest will be in the market for trade. It’s a future growth. Any way like to know an opinion Thank you.

Prof. St.howking had said that the earth would be destroyed within 200 years because the threat of increasing population and decreasing resources and the use of nuclear weapons is continuing on the earth. If the person has to avoid this, then the space will be made in space. And now the foundation of that space country has been laid, which is named Asgardia.
