Researchers at Beihang University in China have developed a tiny solar-powered drone weighing just 4 grams, which is the smallest solar-powered aerial vehicle to fly. While the prototype only operated for an hour, the team believes their approach could lead to insect-sized drones that can stay in the air indefinitely. To overcome the challenge of small solar panels producing less power, the researchers developed a circuit that scales up the voltage produced by the panels. They also used an electrostatic propulsion system instead of an electromagnetic motor, allowing the drone to fly using natural sunlight. [Extracted from the article]

Plastic wrap and aluminum foil are fantastic kitchen aids, but people generally use each piece just once before tossing it in the trash. Now home chefs can cut down on waste by replacing them with W&P's silicone stretch wrap. The reusable wrap can cover a casserole dish or stretch around a cheese block, and W&P says it's safe to put in the oven, microwave, dishwasher, and freezer. [Extracted from the article]
