But a big, shiny mirror for your solar death-ray needs is another matter, which is where this pressure-formed space blanket mirror might come in handy.

The company plans to use satellites positioned approximately 370 miles above Earth, equipped with 33-square-foot ultra-reflective Mylar mirrors.

California-based startup Reflect Orbital plans to extend solar energy availability by reflecting sunlight onto solar panels at night using satellites equipped with mylar mirrors.

Cut a circle of mylar slightly larger than the lid, and tape it all around, taking care of stretching the mylar in the process. After you´re done with this, you end up with a nice flat mirror.

How the technology works Reflect Orbital plans to deploy 57 small satellites into low-Earth orbit. Each satellite will be outfitted with a 33-square-foot reflective Mylar mirror.

An ongoing investigation into the death of an Illinois 6-year-old revealed he likely suffocated on a Mylar-helium filled balloon, according to Wabash County coroner Shaun Keepes.

Reflect Orbital plans to launch a constellation of mini satellites equipped with large reflective mirrors that can beam concentrated rays of sunlight to Earth whenever needed.

Reflect Orbital, a California-based startup, wants to send 57 small satellites into low-Earth orbit with 33-square-foot ultra reflective mylar mirrors that would, in theory, bounce sunlight back ...

The Indore administration on Friday banned their use, along with mylar (reflective polyester film) to protect the environment and public health.

Police also found a fingerprint on a sheet of Mylar reflective film that belonged to a 32-year-old ex-con named Jin Yu Chen, according to Assistant U.S. Attorney Leah K. Bolstad, who prosecuted him.
