Swiss Solar Plane

Up, up and away powered only by the sun. Tonight will be the true test - whether it can store enough solar energy to fly through the night.

think about that

Speaking about planes,it's really irritating why air transportation in 21st century is still so expensive,so i hope this will work and reduce a.t. prices to normal level.

That's a huge wingspan to basically just carry 1 man.

Solar energy is great for reducing pollution.
Can the solar plane fly? The test results will show.

This can be also used to build space ships for colonization since you cant use gas in space.
