And it's 15X thinner than a sheet of paper! Imagine one of these ultra-thin solar panels powering your smartwatch, drone or even your electric car.

That's the future that's closer than you might think! With a little more optimization of this tech, the scientists developing these futuristic power banks will be able to integrate solar cells into everything, which is something that's currently impossible because 95% of all solar panels on the market are made with a bulky, rigid silicon material.

So the next time someone argues that renewables will never be able to replace fossil fuels, take a breath and send them this post.
