Often a more senior person is mentoring a junior person, but mentorship can happen between any two individuals. Mentoring will help Airmen and Guardians discover their strengths by achieving their full potential through a structured, trusting mentoring relationship.

Ascent Solar Technologies has developed a thin film CIGS solar solution which is a very flexible, lightweight made from plastic. Using a process called monolithic integration which builds in redundancy, their solar panels can be shot, run over, dropped, kicked, and it still works. More
