Much new technology was brought about by the space age race to the moon. There is great hope for new technology, especially as nanotechnology comes on board.
I recently read of a device that used an old radium watch face sandwiched between solar cells as a battery type of device.
He reports that a 25 Watt bulb from the taillight of an automobile was lit to full brilliance for 1.5 years. http://www.keelynet.com/energy/atombatt.htm If you are familiar with keelynet be cautious with full belief.
Along very similar lines.
