Describes experiments that can be performed using solar energy in order to learn about its properties, including how different colors absorb sunlight, if it cleans dirty water, and whether it can cook food.
Examines the uses and benefits of solar energy and describes methods that are being developed to capture and use the energy produced by the sun's rays.
Shaun and the Cool Fuel crew travel from San Francisco to Oregon in a vehicle powered by geothermal energy, and Shaun and his dog, Sparky, rely on solar power as they follow the sun through Arizona.
Explains solar energy and its use in solar water heaters, heat pumps, cookers, water distillers, and controlled photosynthesis. Includes simple experiments testing new solar energy theories.
