Industrial designers are currently working on new ways to capture and harvest sustainable energy. One project comes in the form of Geodesic Solar Molecules, which theoretically float in the sky in a cycle of east to west capturing sunlight and storing it for later use as solar energy. The geodesic structures themselves are able to float as a result of the hot air they carry, and without ever having to come down to earth, they can beam usable electricity back to a base station on ground via micro waves. The idea is to utilize the massive amount of energy the sun naturally provides — and since the sun is in constant motion, it only makes sense that to most efficiently capture and utilize its rays, the object that’s doing so must also always be on the move.
