Solar powered garden lamps?

Can they be fixed. When the little sun sucking thingies on the top stop absorbing can these be cleaned or should we cut the losses and make lanterns.

Why isn’t there an electric car available with solar cells on the roof/trunk?

Your car runs out of gas – that’s a problem. Your electric car runs out of battery power – simply park and have lunch and let the sun partially recharge the batteries, then you’re on your way. Once your home or work or a store, either plug it in to an outlet or hook it up to a solar collecter car port for a faster re-charge. How many of you would buy an electric car with solar cells? I wonder what the current technology efficiency level is for recharging a small 2 seat compact anyway? I think it’s time – who wants to go into business with me?

Would a massive international solar-power station in earth’s orbit help reduce global warming?

I know the idea sounds very outlandish but I think it may serve many purposes. I would think that this station could help power the new space tourisim industry. Also, we may be able to absorb enough of the sun’s light to help reduce global warming.

I apologize for the misunderstanding. I have no intention to transfer the energy back to earth… instead use it to help fuel to emerging space industry. Construction could be completed in space since… we will soon easily break the atmosphere in small jets. And I was not trying to shade the planet but use the solar panels to absorb energy from the sun before it hits the atmosphere.

Why don’t we utilize more solar power?

Where is solar power being used? Why aren’t we investing more in a source that is as abundant as the sun? Why all this folly for oil which is worse for our environment and creates conflict with other countries?

The gymnasts’ locker room….?

Does anybody have any ideas for a good gymnasts’ leotard design? I have created a set of characters, six girl floor gymnasts, but they need to have outfits. Right now, the leotards should reflect the powers they have. The ice gymnast might wear light blue with snowflakes or white drift patterns, the spark gymnast might wear a purple leotard with lightning bolts, and the sky gymnast might wear blue with clouds or sun on it. There is also the fire gymnast, the earth gymnast and the water gymnast. Any ideas? And if you can draw, feel free to send me a pattern.

are all the planets in our solar system orbiting on the same line?

i mean the relative highness or lowness assuming we are observing from the equator of sun.
