Using biotechnology and genetic engineering, the team created artificial photosynthesis and converted sun rays into liquid fuel. People tend to think that a solar powered car is the one that has panels fitted on its roof. Of course, they will be right, but many would be […]

Using an entirely different technique, the team obtained […]
