Heard a story on CBC's 'As it Happens' on 1-19. A town in Austria [Rattenberg(sp?)] that is on the wrong side of a valley is considering installing a heliostat on the opposite side of the valley.
The sunlight would be directed to mirrors ABOVE the town to shine light DOWN on it. I think the person interviewed said they get no direct sunlight October-March. Neat idea.
I couldn't turn anything up on Google though, any links or thoughts on this way to overcome light deprivation?
