The moon does not give enough light to enlighten us every year of the year. It does not want to stay fixed for the slow motion of the Earth's only natural satellite. Recently China's Chengdu Science and Technology Research Institute has announced that they launch a artificial moon and reflect light on the night by illuminating the sunlight and reducing the pressure on electricity.
In the past week, Chairman of Chengdu Erasops Science and Technology Microelectronics Systems Research Institute, Uchunfang announced plans to launch a "artificial moon" in 2020. He said this information in the speech of a national publicity and entrepreneur program held in Chengdu, China.
According to Chunfang, this artificial moon will be eight times more shining than the actual moon. He insisted that it was designed to "complement the moon at night". This artificial satellite can enlighten a region of 50 miles in diameter.
According to him, the amount spent to enlighten the streets of a particular region in China is about 173 million US dollars per year. The effect of artificial moon will save a lot of money in the long run.
On the other hand, the director of the Institute of Optics of the Harbin Institute of Technology, Kong Weimin, said that the illumination of astronomical observations in artificial light would be disturbed, the light of the artificial moon is equivalent to a bright evening. It is not enough to harm a biological law.
This artificial moon project is like science fiction, but efforts have been made even before this initiative of China. Russia had accepted a project earlier. To reflect sunlight on the planet, it used a curved plastic screen attached to the spacecraft. Although the Russian government did not succeed in this. Now just wait when China will launch their artificial moon and when the streets of Chengdu city of China will be illuminated in the light of the artificial moon.
