A thin layer of gold that is transparent to visible light but reflective to infrared light is used to keep the temperature of the panels down. This is important in space where the atmosphere does not block solar infrared light, but not needed on the surface of earth.
Gold is rare, Gold is heavy, Gold is soft.
it stands for GOLD GOLD BOY SUCKS
Hydraulic mining blasts away the surface of the mine with highly pressurized jets of water. This allows for easy access to the minerals underneath. A negative consequence of Hydraulic mining is the damage to the surrounding environment.
Gold Layered is primarily an electrical process. First a piece of base metal, normally brass, is submerged in a plating solution and then an electric current is passed through both the solution and the item being plated. There are many different solutions depending on the amount and color of gold to be plated. This process moves individual atoms of gold out of the solution and onto the item being plated. The gold plate is thus evenly deposited only a few molecules thick over the entire object. Depending on various factors, this coating can be worn away in a very short time or last quite a while. Please do not consider plating as a hobby as the process is much more complicated than this simple description makes it seem and the solutions involved contain highly corrosive acids and deadly chemicals like hydrochloric acid and cyanide. Gold Filled is a abbreviated g.f. = Lower in gold content than 10 KT, usually 1/20 or 1/12 KT. In this technique a sheet of gold is mechanically applied to the surface. Victorian pieces are likely to be unmarked, but later pieces are marked with the fineness of the gold layer, and the part by weight of the gold. For example any piece marked "1/10 12K G.F." is composed of at least 1/10 12K gold based on the weight of the finished piece. In the U.S. gold - filled pieces must be at least 1/20 by weight to be classified as gold-filled.
Because Gold is too expensive or Gold isn't very strong. (MPa)
i have know idea
Gold glistens because it is a highly reflective metal with a smooth surface. Its reflective properties cause light to bounce off its surface in a way that creates a shiny and lustrous appearance. This is why gold is often used in jewelry and other decorative items to enhance their visual appeal.
Yes, gold is highly reflective because of its shiny surface and high luster. This property allows it to reflect light effectively, giving it its characteristic shimmer and brightness.
According to Encyclopedia Britannica the first genuine solar cell was built around 1883 by Charles Fritts, who used junctions formed by coating selenium (a semiconductor) with an extremely thin layer of gold.
It is a reflective plastic wrap. Mylar plastic coated with gold was used to reflect solar radiation that would otherwise overheat the spacecraft body. Gold-mylar film reflects both visible and infrared radiation.
Gold does not actually lose weight when polished. The appearance of weight loss is due to the removal of contaminants and surface imperfections during polishing, making the gold appear brighter and more reflective. The actual mass of the gold remains the same.
They are highly reflective.

Yellow, shiny. I don't believe there is a numerical luster scale, just on ordinal one. gold can be polished to as good a reflective surface as any other metal (but some wavelengths will be absorbed thus its yellow color)
Gold has a bright metallic lustre. It is highly reflective and shiny, giving it a distinct and luxurious appearance.
The American Eagle Gold coins are made in Uncirculated and Proof versions. Circulated means exactly that, it has been circulated and or used. We do not use any gold coins at all in every day business. Proof coins have a highly reflective, mirror-like surface. The surface of a uncirculated coin does not.
Gold is shiny. It has a lustrous, reflective quality that gives it a bright and metallic appearance.
