Since the aluminum's surface has changed from our previous calculations, we must determine the impact that this decision could have. Simulate a completely annodized aluminum surface to represent an extreme scenario, and compare that to the more reasonable ratio of solar pannels and annodized surface.

Include the previous results which used a shiny aluminum surface as well.
