        The SolarStratos plane is propelled solely by solar energy, backed by a Li-ion battery. It will be the first piloted solar-powered aircraft to enter the stratosphere, and the first solar-powered twin-seater commercial aircraft in history.<\/p>\n

         <\/p>\n

        The project is led by SolarStratos\u2019 founder and pilot Rapha\u00ebl Domjan, and is supported by an international team of engineers, a former astronaut, pilots, meteorologists and doctors. On the five-hour mission, Domjan will wear an astronaut\u2019s pressurized suit powered uniquely with solar energy \u2013 a global first.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n\n
