Following a discovery by Australian scientists, the world is one step closer to using solar energy at night. Researchers at the University of New South Wales (UNSW) have found a way to "capture" the energy that radiates away from the Earth at night.

"This could mean that the ultimate renewable energy dream might be achieved – generating power that isn't interrupted by sunset," the researchers concluded. How does this technology work and when will it reach the market?
