Very cool! Cars next?? Pushing the boundaries of green energy. A #solar-powered plane completes its first test-flight, ahead of a planned circumnavigation of the globe next year. Project leaders Bertrand Piccard and Andre Borschberg say they want to push the boundaries for alternative energy. Mr Piccard explained the carbon-fibre aircraft had a wingspan wider than a Boeing 747 jet, but weighed only 2.3 tonnes.
