A young boy named Aidan Dwyer invented a solar powered tree structure mimicking the patterns of leaves and had submitted his project to the Young Naturalist Awards, a national contest run by the American Museum of Natural History, and came out to be one of 12 winners. It had all started 2 years ago when he went hiking with his parents and gazed at the trees all around him wondering if the tree's could resemble a way to generate and improve solar energy. Using the Fibonacci sequence to simulate the patterns of leaves on a tree, he assembled a solar collector with solar panels arrayed like leaves and compared the output to traditional flat solar panels manufactured today and resulted with Aidan's solar structure to be more efficient. Like a superb scientist, Aidan is constantly seeking mistakes and uplifting his design to be flawless. Keep your eyes and ears open for updated news towards the development of his brilliant invention and ongoing success.
