Reconciling the Prequels

There's a definite problem with a religion cooked up by one guy trying to sell movie tickets. Imagine you've converted to the Jedi religion on the faith inherent in the Star Wars original trilogy, just to have that faith yanked out from under you in the prequels. The cognitive dissonance is real test of faith -or something like that. May the fourth be with you. Link -via Tastefully Offensive

No, the prequels simply aren't canon! It's not some rhetorical slight-of-hand. Do not be deceived by false teachers.

It does not mimic photosynthesis.

Photosynthesis is the use of sunlight to convert CO2 into organic compounds (like sugar).

It uses sunlight to accomplish a completely different task - harvesting hydrogen from water. The process is known as photoelectrolysis.

Couldn't they have just done the "stick 2 wires in a lemon" -thing?

The real breakthrough would be direct Photocatalysis, the HolyGrail that has been eluding us since it was first described in 1967, known as the Honda/Fujisawa effect. UV light illuminating a Titania cathode connected externally to a platinum anode in water first hydrolyzed water. O2 at the titania electrode and H at the platinum electrode. This looks like self promotion of a more efficient electrolysis for ARPA-E funding.
