Solar plane flight the day the capital

Solar experimental aircraft "Sun Power No." (Solar Impulse) tomorrow morning is expected to take off from the Swiss Air Force Base, for the first 24-hour solar powered flight.
Investment in the risky voyage hot-air balloon pioneer Picard (Bertrand Piccard), the aircraft pilot, the ultimate goal is to achieve the dream of "perpetual flight," and through over night, that argument.
This Swiss adventurer said: "The great adventure of the 21st century is no longer on the moon, because it has been reached, but little by little away from the promotion of social dependence on fossil fuels."
The single-seater aircraft covered by solar panels on top of the weight a little heavier than a small car but the wing length and the same Airbus A340 aircraft, since the 7 months since the runway before the board, has completed 10 test flights.
The prototype airplane full of cutting-edge technologies, four 10-horsepower solar-powered electric motor to rise gently to body height, a continuous flight for several hours.
The other a test flight last weekend to accelerate to the limit when the pilot was shaken, causing quite a panic, the joint R & D people Pausch Berg (AndreBorschberg) described the early morning flight yesterday, "very cool."
Retired astronaut Nikeliye (Claude Nicollier) that when stored in the battery in the daytime solar gradually become less, will be the most critical moment, the team will push up the kinetic energy is expected to sunrise.
Another challenge is to allow the Bosch Berg 24-hour stay awake.
