Artificial photosynthesis

PhysOrg: Molecular assemblies created to convert water to hydrogen gas: "The process has been called artificial photosynthesis, says Brewer, associate professor of chemistry. 'Light energy is converted to chemical energy. Solar light is of sufficient energy to split water into hydrogen and oxygen gas, but this does not happen on its own; we need a catalysts to make this reaction occur.'"



This looks like similar [the same?] research as I reported the other day. A few more details. Again, it looks promising.
