Materials scientists at the UCLA Samueli School of Engineering and colleagues from five other universities around the world have discovered the major reason why perovskite solar cells — which show great promise for improved energy-conversion efficiency — degrade in sunlight, causing their performance to suffer over time.   The team successfully demonstrated a simple manufacturing adjustment to […]

The UK government is reportedly considering a £16 billion proposal to build a solar power station in space. Yes, you read that right. Space-based solar power is one of the technologies to feature in the government’s Net Zero Innovation Portfolio. It has been identified as a potential solution, alongside others, to help the UK achieve […]

With new endgame activities looming in Destiny 2, it's a great time to stock up on new Exotics and Legendary weapons and armor from Xur. Bungie has outlined the future for the Season of the Risen in Destiny 2, outlining when tough content such as Grandmaster Nightfall Strikes and challenges for the Vow of the Disciple raid will hit the game, and you're going to want the best gear possible to deal with them. Here's where Xur can be found this weekend and what he's selling.

Xur arrives in the solar system with the daily reset, so we'll update this article when he shows up.

Xur is present every weekend in Destiny 2, starting with the daily reset at 10 AM PT / 1 PM ET each Friday. His exact location is always a mystery when he first arrives, as he is not listed on the map, and for novice players, he can be easy to miss. However, there are a set number of locations where he takes up residence, including the Tower Hangar area, on Nessus in Watcher's Grave, and in the Winding Cove area of the EDZ.

Alongside changes in his location, Xur's inventory also rotates weekly. That means it's worth visiting him each time to check out his new weapons and rolls on Exotic and Legendary armor. You can visit him any time between his arrival Friday and the weekly reset at 10 AM PT / 1 PM ET the following Tuesday when Xur departs the solar system.

What Are Solar Panels? Solar panels, also known as “solar chips” or “photovoltaics”, are optoelectronic semiconductor sheets that directly generate electricity from sunlight. Single solar cells cannot be used directly as a power source. As a power source, several single solar cells must be connected in series, connected in parallel, and tightly packaged into components. ...
