The 'Star Gazer' tent design by Daniel Thomas has an eco-friendly creature comfort that most tents don't: an interior that's lit by solar-powered LED lights.
The 'Star Gazer' tent also features a covered canopy outside the tent for a miniature mobile patio. There is even a clear skytop panel on the roof of the tent to allow you to stargaze from within the tent.
Implications - The tent provides an eco-friendly vacation and is a great option for people who are conscious about global warming and their carbon footprint. The 'Star Gazer' tent is big and will fit a whole family comfortably inside. The tent has not gone into production yet, but if it does it will cost around $500 US.
