Saptarshi BandyopadhyayNASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory DimSun mission concept focuses on geoengineering using space-based solar radiation management. DimSun will reduce solar insolation by 1.16% using a controlled dust cloud, made with 0.3 micro-meter radius 90%-hollow spherical particles, at the Sun–Earth Lagrangian L1 point.  DimSun is inspired by a previous study that aimed to create an uncontrolled … Continue reading Dimming the Sun (DimSun) Using Controllable Dust Cloud to Reduce Solar Insolation
