    The   ECE Distinguished Lecture Series  brings to campus accomplished scholars  and industry leaders to share the excitement of research and creative engineering across the broad spectrum of electrical and computer technology.  All students are encouraged to attend and explore the power and possibilities of  these emerging technologies.   Admission is free and open to all.  Lectures are followed by a brief question and answer session.

    Distinguished Lecture Series
    Wednesday
    March 3, 2010


    Professor Martin Hoffert, New York University
    "Solar Electricity From Orbit"


    Cost-effective space-based solar power (SBSP) -- the beaming of abundant high-intensity solar power from space through atmospheric windows at laser or microwave frequencies for surface electric power generation -- could be a breakthrough technology for large-scale power generation.



    Lectures begin at 11:00 AM in the CoRE Building Auditorium on Busch Campus.

    Light refreshments served at 10:30 AM.

    Support from the Henry R. and Gladys V. Irons Endowed Lectureship and the Exxon Corporation helped make the ECE Distinguished Lecture Series possible.
