Yes! Exactly! That way the next time a terrorist flies a plane into a building it will also act as dirty bomb spewing forth radio-active particles with a half-life longer than the history of man... genius! Putting aside the security issue, have you any idea the size and care of a successful nuclear power operation? A nuclear submarine and a nuclear power plant are enormous for a reason. They employ full-time engineers and round-the-clock monitoring. I really hope you meant this as a joke.

fantastic. never seen anything like this. moter nature has it all i guess.

Now that we have hydrogen airplanes, the us military should have hydrogen jets. no more drilling for oil. :)

Beautiful!

I guess you have never flown in one

the question here should not be why we love to fly but to why we love to travel...humans love to explore and man has invented machine to travel over land and sea.....we in modern times now use theses machine has a way of recreation ....to some people flying means freedom..to some people flying means a business venture..etc..

Dear All,I have some questions about psychology:(1) Why do we love flying?(2) Why do we want to design new aeroplanes?(3) What do we enjoy when design new aeroplanes?THANK YOU IN ADVANCE for your creative ideas and brainstorm!!! :)

Is this from stock symbol SYMW?

Aaah, waist of time, just go nuclear/electric like the submarines.

Looks like diamont aircraft

who here believes the American oil industry has not been in TERMINAL decline for over 30 years?who here believes that Hydrogen is anything other than a means to STORE energy? who here believes there is an infinite quantity of petroleum?who here believe that Osama Bin Laden suspended Newton's Third Law on 9-11-01?who here believes a socially adept psychopath is incapable of being elected president? hmmm, what would a psychopath president, with major ties to oil industry do ........

there is at least one are where the profound ignorance of 99% of Americans matches their profound ignorance of energy and that is on the subject of 9-11-01.so, it is TECHNICALLY feasible to fly a plane using Hydrogen as fuel? Where does the Hydrogen come from? is the energy used to create this fuel less than or equal to the energy that will be obtained from the Hydrogen ? no great stretch to make most Americans believe fire caused the total DEMOLITION of World Trade Center 7.

those fuels cell been around forever. Now get a zirconia based fuel cell and you will have lots of output. Since you don't has to use hydrogen to burn. You could burn the pollution in the air for fuel.

1) The size of wings are not enough for the solar panels to fit over. It takes A LOT of panels to create energy and it won't power the plane with that much. 2) payload would be massive. 3) wings are used to store fuel and the fuel would have no place to go... And of course I already mentioned solar panels have to be in large quantities to produce that kind of power. 4) If you are talking about electrics in cabin such as lights, that's because the engines act like generators.

solar panels don't come too cheap so it's probably gonna increase the price of airplanes

> joshuaoha said on 05-26-2009 at 04:37:
NASA has a prototype called Helios. Its slow and huge and can't carry much wait. But cool anyhow. Search for "helios" or "solar plane"

> midgetman433 said on 04-25-2009 at 17:58:
ummm. i dont think the solar power would provide enough power.....btw how will they fly at night.... or if it was cloudy lol.....

i would like to see a Aircraft just run on electric

> 111olbap said on 04-23-2009 at 06:20:
Nope but you're onto something there. I like it.

Solar powered flight has been achieved. Solar Challenger crossed the English Channel & reached 11,000'
