Solar Paint Update
It turns out I’m not the only one to think of solar paint. There’s actual a local startup trying to make cheap “printed” sheets of solar cells. Check out Nanosolar. Pretty cool stuff.

The latest issue of MIT”s Technology Review has a good story on this stuff. I was stuck in PDX airport recently, so I happened to pick up a copy. The technology sounds quite promising.
If I could paint my glider’s fuselage with it, I’d never need to charge the battery.
