Solar Powered Plane

Solar Impulse is a project to build a solar powered plane that can fly around the world. This is, of course, very challenging but made even more so due to night flights. During the daylight hours the solar panels must make enough energy to power the flight and also charge the batteries to be used during night time. Wow. Good luck!
