Giant mirrors have been positioned on top of a hill in Norway to shine light into the dark valley town of Rjukan. The sides of the valley are so steep and the mountain so high that the town of Rjukan was in shadow for almost half the year until the new invention was added. The mirrors are controlled by a computer that follows the path of the sun, adjusting to the best angle to catch the rays and reflect them onto the town centre. Report by Sarah Johnston.

That's a THICC accent and probably the best pronunciation of "Rjukan" I've ever heard😅
The 2 long lost vampires from Rjukan are mad
Bizarre it took so long to actually build. Was reading about this town and noticed the idea was indeed around for 100 years?!? Why wait?
Mirrors controlled by a computer that follows the path of the sun,adjusting to

was Science fiction,
a 100 years ago
Genius project and it deserves
A project well worth the money. A few more mirrors for the town may be in order.
And it never came to be in order
And china was trying to build an artificial sun 😂😂
That's the sort of answer a kid would come up with "Giant Mirrors!" =D
That sunless town looks like Rjukan in Norway
The Norse accent kind of sounds like a Somerset accent from the UK
can we install such mirror in space to get sunlight at night ??
They did that in '69 actually. It's called the Moon
Patrick Hennessey He probably means for it to actually be light out (Ig it’s still kind of light with the moon, but still though), not the equivalent of almost mid Nautical Twilight when the sun is 8.5° below the horizon.

I hate sunlight…I prefer the night time
@@Shamonwhitehurst252 yes even i like but if we could install them up there we could get sunlight during natural calamities to rescue people
Tine of Radjikan??? :-D sounds rather exotic.
Fascinating
So glad the toyne's residents no longer need to take a cebble car to the top of the moyntain
I need this , same condition here at my home area
Go norway!!!
we should do the opposite to safe life!
Now all they need to do is angle it just right and they could burn some ants with it.
Norway !! ( no way !! )
Nor Way!! I never realised there was a town covered in darkness.
Are the giant sun mirrors made up?
Someone had a bright idea...
what are these mirrors made from?
stainless steel hopefully
A bigger one and rounded.
Very Special
What's a 'toyne'?
Seems like a shady place.
Just move somewhere warmer
Alfred left batman and is working for people if norway
Why not have more mirrors and create a perpetual summer?
Where’s the heavy water plant

Vampires disagree.
Causing change in climate.
haha, I laughed at that! So true...
Damn it's gotta suck there lol 😂
Was just there and told it's now inoperable and the company that built it is bankrupt
Good place for a nightclub
Who else here from the ACT
Kesini gara gara liat postingan ig
The whole thing didn't seem to be lighting too much of the town up, it would be better with a larger mirror to light up the whole town...
Smol taween
"New invention" - It's a mirror.
🤓
But the sun shines from everywhere
Why?
DID SHE SAY "SMALL TINE IN NORWAY" ?
Irish accent
Northern Irish accent.
They took the idea from Italy.
Human Selfishness, Not Eco friendly. Gradually land slides may occur.
