University of Arizona researchers are employing mirrors found in telescopes for strong solar energy generation. Their prototype bears two curved, extremely reflective glass mirrors, each having dimensions of 10ft x 10ft. Prof Roger Angel, the team leader, stated that a majority of mirrors found in solar power plants are employed for thermal energy production by directing light onto a lengthy pipe used to heat up the water till it becomes steam.
