Hello Future Engineer,
You may have never heard of Lonnie Johnson, who invented the super-soaker squirt gun. You can read about his invention here. But today I am going to tell you of his another breakthrough that might make solar power affordable for all of us. It involves using thermodynamics (instead of solar cells/photovoltaics) to harness solar power efficiently. I will now leave you to read about it on his website.
You may also derive inspiration from learning about his childhood as an African American in Alabama in 60s. This is to be found in the article published in The Atlantic Monthly.
