astable multivibrator

I am a beginner and I don't understand why the transistors aren't permanently on, because the current is flowing from the capacitors and from the battery to the base pin at the same time, so it should be turned on because there is a wire that connects the transistor base pin directly to the Battery

Hi, I'm trying to get a small dc motor to run for the longest possible time from the energy of a small solar panel with a liion battery (or cap). The solar panel output up to 40mA at 0.5v (close to max max power point). I have tested the motor, it starts at 0.142v/11mA (I can also do 24mA and...
