The 7 wonders of the solar system | Astronomy.com
Most of us can only name a few of the seven wonders of the world, but historians, archaeologists, and pub quizzers can rattle off the names of each and every one of them.
But ask a roomful of astronomers to name the seven wonders of the solar system and you’ll get lots of different answers — and probably start an argument!
DOE Announces $8 Million to Integrate Solar Energy Production with Farming | Department of Energy
Coast to Coast Agrivoltaic Research Projects Will Enhance Economic Opportunities for Farmers and Reduce Barriers to Solar Energy Adoption in Rural Communities
WASHINGTON, D.C. — The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) today announced $8 million for six solar energy research projects across six states and the District of Columbia that will provide new economic opportunities for farmers, rural communities, and the solar industry.
JWST detects clouds and weather patterns on Saturn's moon Titan | SYFY WIRE
Saturn seems almost intentionally designed for science fiction stories. It's the perfect mix of bizarrely alien and wholly familiar, and Silent Running is a thrilling reminder that while the solar system is beautiful, there's no place like home.
That said, Titan is of particular interest to astronomers for a couple of reasons. First, unlike other rocky worlds in our solar system — with the obvious exception of Earth — Titan is the only one with an active liquid cycle. The distant moon world has rivers, lakes, and seas. It even rains.

The Overlooked Solar Power Potential of U.S. Parking Lots | Time
In November, France’s senate approved a law which would require the owners of almost all large parking lots to install solar panels. They would have to cover 50% of the lots’ surface area by 2028—or face a heavy monthly fine.
France’s law has been met with huge enthusiasm by clean-energy advocates, who say solar parking lots can help clear a massive hurdle to renewable rollouts: land scarcity.
PSC votes on petition for third-party financing for solar energy | Wisconsin Law Journal - WI ...
The Public Service Commission voted 2-1 on Dec. 1 to rule on nonprofit solar energy promoter Vote Solar's petition to free third-party financers from being regulated as public utilities, the Wisconsin Examiner reported.
Vote Solar filed a petition in May 2022 to rule owners of third-party financed photovoltaic systems won't be subject to the same rules as public utility. "(Owners) will not be deemed to be, or regulated as, a 'public utility' under Wis. Stat.

It also establishes when solar owners are billed for their draws on the grid vs. their contributions to it (monthly or annually, for instance) through a "True Up" bill.
Potential solar customers appear to have two options to mitigate some of the lost credits value under NEM 3.0. The first and best immediate option is to lock in NEM 2.0 credits before NEM 3.0 takes effect.
Astronomers Just Discovered the Closest Black Hole to Earth
To discover this dormant black hole in the absence of such emissions, El-Badry and his team used the effect that the black hole has on the star that orbits it to infer its presence.
This allowed them to measure the rapid velocity of the companion star as it orbits the black hole, and confirmed the masses of the two objects, cementing the theory that the central object of Gaia BH1 is a stellar-mass black hole.
