Dive into research, materials and progress of reflective materials to prevent ice melting with Dr. Leslie Field, Founder of Bright Ice and Arctic Ice Project (https://www.arcticiceproject.org/) Learn about Arctic Ice Project, and Bright Ice a nonprofit that plans to inhibit glacial melting by adding a safe, reflective material to the surface of dirty ice and water to brighten (www.brighticeinitiative.org) Explore >10um Si microspheres such as 3M™ Glass Bubbles materials, dynamics, lifespan, , and environment savings with potential to mitigate 1.02°C rise and sea ice volume mitigation of about 8% per 1C rise, and with up to 40% increase in lifespan of ice. Even adding 1% of Arctic sea ice is enough to make a significant difference in overall reflectivity. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/frontier-space/support

Learn about how lead Iodide perovskites (CH3Nh3PbI3) and thin-film cadmium telluride (CdTe) can be utilised for X ray and gamma voltaics. After researchers observed 75% charge collection efficiency with MAPbl3, Material shows less than 20% decrease in performance up to 40 Sv of Xray dose, demonstrating very good stability with a few on orbit demos. Topics include applications to collect ambient energy near reactors and soft X-ray background (SXRB/CXRB in 2-100keV).
