Technology tamfitronics The vadose zone, a crucial region for plant water absorption, has traditionally been challenging to measure accurately. Current methods, such as satellite imaging, provide only low-resolution averages and cannot penetrate below the surface. Additionally, the rapid fluctuations of moisture within this region make it difficult to monitor effectively.However, Caltech researchers have introduced an innovative method to address this issue. By utilizing seismic technology originally designed for earthquake monitoring, the researchers have found a way to measure soil moisture in the vadose zone. This groundbreaking approach involves analyzing the vibrations caused by everyday activities, such as traffic, as they pass through the ground.The presence of water in the soil affects the speed of these vibrations, allowing researchers to determine the water content in the vadose zone. This pioneering technique offers the potential for more...

Credit: SolestialLOGAN, Utah — Solestial announced a strategic partnership Aug. 5 with Meyer Burger Technology to dramatically expand production of silicon solar technology.Tempe, Arizona-based Solestial’s radiation-resistant solar cells and flexible solar power modules are designed for long-term space applications. Meyer Burger, a publicly traded Swiss company, brings expertise in manufacturing solar cells and modules.Through the partnership, Solestial and Meyer Burger plan to produce 1 megawatt of solar cells annually by mid-2025. For comparison, Solestial currently produces less than 100 kilowatts per year.“This is a huge scale up for Solestial,” Andy Atherton, Solestial chief operations officer, told SpaceNews by email. “It’s also worth noting that the entire global manufacturing capacity for space-specialized solar is less than 2 megawatts today. So, we’re adding meaningful global scale with this partnership.”Solestial flexible solar power...
