Spiral solar tower promises near-continuous power for Moon bases
A proposed spiral-shaped solar tower design could deliver near-continuous electricity to future Moon bases, according to a report by New Atlas. By stacking photovoltaic panels in a helical configuration on a tall mast, the concept aims to keep arrays illuminated for longer stretches of the lunar day, easing the challenge of surviving the two-week lunar night. Details on funding, developers or testing timelines were not provided in the report.
