After the predecessor of the solar plane Solar Impulse 2 made history several times, including as the first solar plane to make an intercontinental flight, its successor has set itself an even more daring mission, which plans to fly around the world, which has already started in Abu Dhabi. In doing so, the 2.3 tonne carbon fiber aircraft with a wingspan of 72 metres, piloted alternately by the father of the aircraft, Andre Borschberg and Bertrand Piccard from Switzerland, will be able to use only solar energy.
