New Acquisition to Expand Opportunities in the Significant Government Contract Market EL CAJON, CA / ACCESSWIRE / February 11, 2021 / Solar Integrated Roofing Corp. (OTC PINK:SIRC), an integrated, single-source

Chinese solar companies are among 175 around the world that signed a nonbinding pledge by a U.S. trade group to avoid forced labor. It will be much harder for them to actually cut ties with Xinjiang, the western China region facing increasing scrutiny for human rights abuses.
The pledge from the Solar Energy Industries Association in the U.S. doesn’t specifically mention Xinjiang.

11 FEBRUARY 2021
The most distant known object in the Solar System is now confirmed. FarFarOut, a large chunk of rock found in 2018 at a whopping distance of around 132 astronomical units from the Sun, has been studied and characterised, and we now know a lot more about it, and its orbit.
It s about 400 kilometres (250 miles) across, which is on the low end of the dwarf planet scale, and initial observations suggest it has an average orbital distance of 101 astronomical units - that s 101 times the distance between Earth and the Sun.
