I'm waiting for the kickstarter on this one.. 64nW/m^2.. it's definitely going to be a revolution!

Using a special conductor pointed at the sky, the gadget harvests energy from the temperature difference between Earth and the freezing vastness of deep space.

What's this "atmosphere" thing in the way?

Gotta be careful of those lunar panels...they'll turn you into a wererabbit.

I thought the title was referring to LEDs.

Technically, you can light up a solar panel, it's just really weak.

Excellent, I could use this technology to power my home.

There is just the small problem of finding a suitable area for the panels. An installation covering a small country like Liechtenstein should be large enough to supply the power needs for my house and even leave a bit over for my neighbour's house.
