SOLAR POWER
SOLAR POWER is the harnessing of the Suns power. The Sun's core is 27,000,000 deg F. The Surface of the Sun is an
average of 10,000 deg F.
This project will show you how to harness the power of the Sun. If you could take a large area of Sunlight and squeeze it
into a small area, it would get very hot, hot enough to burn an object. To build this project, take a reflector out of a
Flashlight and push a pencil though the light bulb hole from the bottom up. Point the refector at the Sun and watch the
pencil smoke. The refector from the flashlight focuses the Suns heat at one point on the pencil, causing it to burn.
