Hi there,

The science behind this project is the importance and potential of solar energy in our lives. The aluminum foil that you used to line the pizza box helps focus all of the sun's rays into the thing you are trying to cook, demonstrating the power of solar energy. If you would like, you can harness more of the sun's energy by making adjustments and analyzing how long it takes to cook the same thing after slight modifications. Hope this helps.
