2. Space sunshade - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Space_sunshade

   By using the solar radiation pressure on the mirrors as solar sails and tilting them in the right direction, the flyer will be capable of altering its speed and direction to keep in position. [ 12 ] Such a group of sunshades would need to occupy an area of about 3.8 million square kilometers if placed at the L1 point [ 12 ] (see other lower ...

   Solar sail craft can approach the Sun to deliver observation payloads or to take up station keeping orbits. They can operate at 0.25 AU or closer. They can reach high orbital inclinations, including polar. Solar sails can travel to and from all of the inner planets. Trips to Mercury and Venus are for rendezvous and orbit entry for the payload.

4. Electric sail - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electric_sail

   An electric sail (also known as an electric solar wind sail or an E-sail) is a proposed form of spacecraft propulsion using the dynamic pressure of the solar wind as a source of thrust. It creates a "virtual" sail by using small wires to form an electric field that deflects solar wind protons and extracts their momentum.

6. Solar still - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solar_still

   A solar still distills water with substances dissolved in it by using the heat of the Sun to evaporate water so that it may be cooled and collected, thereby purifying it. They are used in areas where drinking water is unavailable, so that clean water is obtained from dirty water or from plants by exposing them to sunlight.
