But we have demonstrated that by directly using power generated by the cold universe, we can chill water to cool buildings by as much as 5 ºC during the day without electricity and light the night without wires or batteries. Rather, the panels reach far beyond Earth’s atmosphere to tap the distant cold of deep space. Sound crazy?
