Hey everyone you know this city Rjukan had not received Sunshine for years in winter. I was so surprised to hear this. Then a person called Sam Hyde an industrialist did a miracle using mirrors to create artificial sun. How beautiful!
Everyone are happy and greatful to him. I hope you all enjoyed this piece of information. To know more, please use the link.

@manasamanu I've found the info. It's a town in Italy that installed a mirror to lighten up the centre. They did that 10 years ago.

No worries for that because this happens only during winter and in summer they are all fine with the bright sunlight.

You are absolutely right. It gives us an inner strength to live without it.
You are welcome.
