LIVE: Solar Impulse Airplane - Landing in Nagoya - #RTW Attempt #futureisclean

Duration: 102:33
Updated: 01 Jun 2015

Solar Impulse on the way to Hawaii, was not able to cross to the Pacific due to the cold front and deteriorating weather conditions. Negotiations went on during the day to land in Nagoya, Japan. The Solar Team has flown to the country to prepare for the landing and followed the backup plan pre-established by the Mission Control Center. However, the aircraft doesn't have additional wheels, as it normally does for better stability, which might cause the wing to drop. HB-SIB landed safe in Nagoya (instead of Honolulu) at 2349 local time Japan (1449 UTC). André achieves a record-breaking flight in terms duration, this is officially the longest flight in a Solar Airplane! Stay tuned for the next update on takeoff for Hawaii #futureisclean!

"Сонячний" Solar Impulse-2 перервав переліт через Тихий океан

Duration: 0:12
Updated: 01 Jun 2015

http://www.5.ua | Літак на сонячних батареях перервав політ через негоду. "Солар Імпалс-2" здійснює навколосвітню подорож. Апарат стартував з Абу-Дабі у березні цього року. Але через погані погодні умови перервав свій останній переліт через Тихий океан і приземлився у Японії, у місті Нагоя. Командир екіпажу - пілот Бертран Піккар заявив, що безпека - понад усе, відтак політ відновлять лише за умови поліпшення погоди. Востаннє літак на сонячних батареях робив зупинку у Китаї. Звідти вирушив до Гавайських островів. Цей найдовший і найскладніший у маршруті переліт мав би тривати 6 діб. Втім, на заваді стала негода. Літак "Солар Імпалс-2" має розмах крил 72 метри, важить понад дві тонни і працює лише на енергії Сонця.

Solar Impulse has landed in Nanjing after a 17h flight. Schindler and Sina welcome Si2 in Nanjing, one of the most populated city in China. Bertrand Piccard replaced André Borschberg for this flight as he is recovering in Switzerland from a sickness. The flight went better than expected since Bertrand climbed up to 14,000 feet to avoid turbulences. The MCC had the honor of hosting Christian Masset, the French Ministry of Foreign Affairs, who spoke with Bertrand about #futureisclean. Bertrand was on holding over Nanjing before landing; the Chinese authorities closed the airport letting Bertrand choose the runway most suited for landing. Solar Impulse has completed the segment one! It's strategic location, close to the Pacific ocean, will allow the most thorough preparation before taking off for Hawaii, the most challenging flight since the beginning of the adventure.

It's the launch of the newest adventure in this first-of-its-kind aircraft. For the next 130 hours, six days and six nights with no fuel, two pilots are flying the Solar Impulse 2 across the Pacific Ocean -- a record-breaking journey -- using just the power of the sun to fuel the flight from Nanjing, China over South Korea, Japan, and then landing in Hawaii before taking off again to Phoenix, Arizona. "I'm confident that the airplane is a great airplane in terms of performance and the way that it flies,” pilot Andre Borschberg said.

Solar Impulse 2 Plane Powered Only by the Sun Begins Journey Across the Pacific Solar Impulse 2 Plane Powered Only by the Sun Begins Journey Across the Pacific Solar Impulse 2 Plane Powered Only by the Sun Begins Journey Across the Pacific It's the launch of the newest adventure in this first-of-its-kind aircraft. For the next 130 hours, six days and six nights with no fuel, two pilots are flying the Solar Impulse 2 across the Pacific Ocean -- a record-breaking journey -- using just the power of the sun to fuel the flight from Nanjing, China over South Korea, Japan, and then landing in Hawaii before taking off again to Phoenix, Arizona. "I'm confident that the airplane is a great airplane in terms of performance and the way that it flies,” pilot Andre Borschberg said. He is taking the first shift, squeezing into the tiny one-man cockpit live on streaming video from behind the controls over the 5,000-mile voyage. "In terms of safety, we are covered,” he said, “but in terms of mission, the suspense will remain." That's where co-pilot Bertrand Piccard will take over the controls after a quick pit stop. But on Saturday he was at mission control with the Prince of Monaco, cheering on this leg the journey. The plane's wingspan is 72 meters (about 80 yards) -- larger than a Boeing 747, yet lighter than an SUV. “Our goal is to demonstrate that we can do incredible things with clean technologies and renewable energies,” Piccard said, “like flying day and night with absolutely no fuel.” The Solar Impulse, created by over 80 companies, is part of the #futureisclean movement, led by Borschberg and Piccard. Its inventors say the technology could change aviation as we know it. “The worst is not to fail,” Piccard said. “The worst is when we don't dare to try.” With food, water and sports drinks, Borschberg has enough food for a week. He also has oxygen bottles, a parachute and life raft just in case. In tight quarters, the pilots -- who have been trained in self-hypnosis and meditation to deal with such a confined place -- will remain in a specialized seat. They are able to recline and sleep while the plane is on auto pilot, but just for 20 minutes at a time, weather permitting.

Plane's 5-Day, Zero-Fuel Flight Means A Lot For Green Tech

Duration: 2:03
Updated: 31 May 2015

If it lands in Hawaii, the sun-powered Solar Impulse 2 plane will set a record for the longest-duration single-pilot flight. Follow Matt Moreno: http://www.twitter.com/TheMattMoreno See more at http://www.newsy.com Transcript: After a monthlong wait, Solar Impulse 2 is back in the air. "Next stop, the Islands of Hawaii; six days and six nights away," said the BBC's John Sudworth. This is the latest — and longest — leg of a trip that started two months ago. Solar Impulse 2 left Abu Dhabi in March in an effort to circumnavigate the globe using only solar power. (Video via Solar Impulse) The upper surfaces of the plane are coated in solar cells to maximize its collection. Except for its sun-charged batteries, it doesn’t carry any sort of fuel. The Solar Impulse team says its flight is to demonstrate the broader potential of renewable energy. They hold up the sun-powered plane as a proof of concept for how such clean tech can be made useful. One thing is for sure: Solar Impulse won't replace any commuter planes anytime soon. It's got a top speed of a little more than 86 miles per hour, is a really lightweight at just over 5,000 pounds and still has a wingspan greater the Boeing 747. Crosswinds can be a bit of a problem. (Video via Solar Impulse) This will be especially important during the multiday crossing to Hawaii. After flying all night, its batteries can run down to less than 10 percent, so it depends on recharging in clear skies in the morning. So if the weather doesn’t provide ideal conditions, Solar Impulse can be forced to wait. It spent more than a month stalled in China until conditions aligned over the Pacific. The more than 130-hour flight will be upwards of five times the duration of the longest previous leg. If it goes well, Solar Impulse II could set a record for the longest flight by a single-pilot aircraft. And if something goes wrong, Pilot Andre Borschberg could have to ditch over the largest ocean on the planet. He told The Guardian: "In the worst case we have a parachute, we have a life raft and we know how to use it. Of course, [we're] hoping that we will not need to do that." After it touches down in Hawaii, Solar Impulse 2 will be on the way to the mainland U.S. on a three- to four-day flight to Phoenix.

Bring me forward through time*
Take me beyond eternal light

I see my soul drifting onward
Looking back through this rift in time
Different, yet the same
Close my eyes, and take my last breath
Drifting...
