Scientists and engineers at the HQ of Titan Aerospace, engineers are busy in manufacturing Solara, a line of solar powered airplanes which are capable of staying in flight for years.
Solara 50, which has a wing span which measures up to 50 meters, will come equipped with almost 3,000 photovoltaic cells spread on those wings.
The aircraft has been designed to reach a height of 20 km into the stratosphere while carrying a small payload. Solara series can provide broadband services, aerial photographs, patrol the borders, keep a check on ozone layer and to enhance cellular service.
If everything goes as planned, the plane will be on sale in 2015.
