A solar-powered test plane flying around the world without spending a drop of fuel landed in California on Sunday, just one step away from completing its groundbreaking journey
.
The solar-powered aircraft can store
battery energy when there is no sunlight.
Swiss adventurer Bertrand Piccard drives Solar Impulse 2
from Hawaii to California.
"Innovation and entrepreneurship must continue, and the cleantech revolution must continue
.
" Picard, a 58-year-old doctor by training who spent 62 hours alone flying between the town of Hawaii and the Silicon Valley town, said the trip was one of
the most amazing experiences of his life.
It said that in ten years, electric aircraft will carry as many as 50 people
.
The main goal of the test drive flight was to promote the use of renewable energy, and the aircraft was equipped with 17,000 solar cells
.
The aircraft has a wider wingspan than a jumbo jet, but weighs about the same weight as a car and is lightweight
.
Last July, SI2 made a forced landing
midway due to battery problems during its 21,700-mile (35,000-kilometer) voyage.
It took the crew months to repair damage caused by high tropical temperatures on their first flight across the Pacific from Japan to Hawaii
.
Flying over the Pacific Ocean is very dangerous because of the lack of effective landing sites
in case of emergency.
