After years of cutting-edge research, the Solar Impulse HB-SIA, the first airplane designed to fly day and night without fuel, has finally made its first night flight on July 7th, 2010. The dream of famous explorers and engineers Bertrand Piccard and André Borschberg has become reality.
Now, flying clean is possible thanks to skin-like solar panels and powerful light batteries!
