"Russian scientists have invented a battery that can capture energy not
only from the sun, but also from the stars, the head of a research
institute at the Dubna Nuclear Institute, near Moscow, said.
"The scientists have successfully created a new substance," Valentin
Samoilov announced, "thanks to which this battery can work on earth,
independently of meteorological conditions, using solar and stellar
energy.
"This is a battery like no other," Samoilov, who head's the Institute's
center for applied research, told the Itar-Tass news agency, explaining
that it could function 24 hours a day and was twice as effective as an
ordinary solar panel at converting light into electricity.
Moreover, Samoilov declared, the new battery was cheaper than a solar
panel.
