26、compuer-controlled mirrors,thousands of feet across,may one day orbit the earth ,reflecting sunlight onto a darkened United Stated. Some scientists say that 16 of these mirrors, each about half a mile across,could aim their reflected light at one area on the earth that was about 200 miles by 3oo mil
27、es. That much light would equal about 56 moons. The mirrors would be so high that they could catch the suns light as it was shining on the other side of the earth.The mirrors could orbit-thousands of miles high-at the same speed as the earth turns on its(轴). That way , the mirror could always be ove
28、r the same spot. The aluminum-coated(涂铝的), plastic mirrors could be folded up and packed into a spaceship,according to the scientists.

The reflected sunlight would allow these cities to save up electricity. And in emergencies, such as power-failures, the mirrors could light the affected area.What no one knows yet is what effect this artificial daytime would have on plants,ani
