| 説明 | Inside the Solar Impulse preparation tent with co-founder and pilot, André Borschberg at NASA Ames preparing for his 5am flight out the next day. His solar-powered aircraft has the wingspan of a 747 and the weight of an SUV. He typically flies at 25 MPH and uses the day to rise up to 28K feet, and slowly glides down over the night. They landed at NASA after a long flight over the Pacific, where a miscalculation could land them in the water, losing the craft. On these segments, they have to remain alert every hour, and so they take many 20 minute naps (sometimes using self-hypnosis to get to sleep).They like to approach for landing into a headwind, which in heavy winds can result in a negative ground speed (approaching the runway tail first). And after taking off from here, he buzzed over SpaceX: blog.solarimpulse.com/post/143752113690/spacex-dragon-sol... |
