Motion-sensitive spacesuits could generate power, New Scientist

“Astronauts’ spacesuits may one day be covered in motion-sensitive proteins that could generate power from the astronauts’ movement, according to futuristic research being conducted by a new lab in Cambridge, Massachusetts, US. Such “power skins” could also be used to coat future human bases on Mars, where they could produce energy from the Martian wind.”
