Thought you would get a kick out of this...
Now this is pretty creative! They use soap bubbles to fill the cavity between the inner and outer skin of the GH for solar shading, and insulation. And its automated!

Now that is pushing the envelope :idea: . I wonder what the light throughput is with it bubbled up like that. I really like the idea but it looks a bit complicated to build something like that.

Good Catch Eng
