The Dover Sun House | THE SUN QUEEN | AMERICAN EXPERIENCE | PBS

In the winter of 1948, a family of three moved into a newly built house in Dover, Massachusetts with curiously large windows. The Dover Sun House, as it came to be known, was the brainchild of chemical engineer and inventor Mária Telkes, obsessed with harnessing the power of the sun.
No one had ever tried to survive a frigid New England winter in a home heated by nothing but the sun. The Nemethys were the first to try.
