And it is well that nature has so graciously and abundantly lighted the Martian night, for the green men of Mars, being a nomadic race without high intellectual development, have but crude means for
artificial lighting; depending principally upon torches, a kind of candle, and a peculiar oil lamp which generates a gas and burns without a wick.
The new findings indicate use of
artificial lighting instead is growing, increasing energy demand.
Summary: New Delhi [India], August 30 (ANI): Moving along the pathway to realise their environmental ambitions, the Norwegian Embassy here registered record-low power consumption below 140 kWh/m2 per year by focusing on planning the layout of the building in a way to reduce
artificial lighting and cooling.
But the latest research reveals that these creatures might be at risk from
artificial lighting. Scientists working in Switzerland report a big drop in pollinator visits as well as reduced fruit production in patches of cabbage thistle (Cirsium oleraceum) under
artificial lighting at night, in a study published on August 2 in Nature.
The images show the parts of the Earth that humans currently inhabit, signified by the intensity of
artificial lighting emanating from these areas.
The zone has
artificial lighting controls with a 500 lux illuminance set point facing the ceiling.
If natural light is not available, the study suggests optimizing the spectrum, intensity and variability of
artificial lighting to support positive behaviors.

In the course of cultivation, it has been established that use of the circle of Bogdanov allows receiving the maximum concentration of cages of microalgae both in flasks and in the photobioreactor with natural and
artificial lighting. Therefore, we have chosen this environment for further experiments.
