Ben Nowack, a 26-year-old inventor and former SpaceX employee, wants to send satellites with mirrors mounted on them into orbit to allow us to generate solar energy at night,"Everybody's installing so many solar panels everywhere," Nowack told the site. "It’s really a great candidate to power humanity."
