Solar Aircraft

The new solar storm is caused by coronal mass ejections (CMEs), which are explosions of particles leaving the Sun. When these particles arrive on Earth, they disrupt its magnetic field.

In an in-depth analysis conducted by a team of Japanese researchers at JAMSTEC (Japan Agency for Marine-Earth Science and Technology), it is found that the Ryugu samples brought on Earth in December 2020 by the Japanese aircraft Hayabusa-2 are the most “uncontaminated” samples. This will help scientists get a crystal-clear insight into the chem...

In a little over three years from now, a cutting-edge drone made by a Noida-based start-up may be able to fly 65,000 feet over the town of Tawang in Arunachal Pradesh and remain in the air for no less than three weeks at a time

Solar Impulse 2 landed today in the UAE, completing its epic journey to become the first sun-powered airplane to circle the globe without a drop of fuel to promote renewable energy.

The Aquila program is a key part of Mark Zuckerberg's stated goal of helping connect everyone in the world.

The Solar Impulse 2 aircraft passed the halfway mark of its marathon flight across the Atlantic late Tuesday, one of the most challenging legs of its historic sun-powered journey around the world.

The sun-powered Solar Impulse 2 aircraft set off from New York's JFK airport early today, embarking on the transatlantic leg of its record-breaking flight around the world to promote renewable energy.

The Swiss team flying the aircraft in a campaign to build support for clean energy technologies hopes eventually to complete its circumnavigation in Abu Dhabi.

The Solar Impulse 2 aircraft flew by the Statue of Liberty early today, near the end of the US portion of its bid to circle the globe using only solar power.

The Solar Impulse 2 aircraft set off late Friday from Pennsylvania, aiming for New York and a fly-over of the Statue of Liberty in the latest leg of its bid to circle the globe using only solar power.

The sun-powered Solar Impulse 2 aircraft landed in the US state of Pennsylvania on Wednesday, completing the latest leg of a record-breaking flight around the world to promote renewable energy by consuming no fuel.

The Solar Impulse 2, an experimental aircraft flying around the world to draw attention to clean energy technologies, took off Monday from near San Francisco en route to the southwest city of Phoenix.

Solar Impulse 2, an experimental aircraft flying around the world to draw attention to clean energy technologies, is to take flight again on Monday, organizers said.

The two Swiss pilots taking turns to fly a solar-powered airplane around the world said Sunday the endeavour is not only a demonstration of the importance of renewable energy but also of the many challenges the human body can endure.

The sun-powered Solar Impulse 2 aircraft has been grounded in Hawaii, its crew said Saturday, after a grueling five-day, fuel-less flight across the Pacific Ocean overheated its batteries.
