Workers build mirrors. The mirrors will go to space.

Sunlight hits the mirrors. It bounces back to Earth. It lights the darkness. People get power.

People at Reflect Orbital build satellites. They want to put satellites into space. These will reflect sunlight. Sunbeams could reach dark parts of Earth. Solar panels need sunlight for power. They do not work at night. Space mirrors could help. U.S. officials gave permission for a test. The first mirror satellite will launch soon. Not everyone likes this plan. Some think extra light might disturb animals and plants. Could it hurt the eyes of telescope users too? Many want to keep nighttime dark.

Jesus said, “I am the Light of the world.” (John 8:12)
