Solar Impulse - Best of First Transatlantic Crossing in a solar airplane

http://www.solarimpulse.com
Bertrand Piccard achieved the first transatlantic solar and electric crossing, with zero fuel and zero emissions, after 71 hours of solar flight!

Just like Charles Lindbergh, Bertrand Piccard flew across the Atlantic Ocean, but this time without a single drop of fuel. Another step closer to the completion of the first round-the-world solar flight, thanks to the aircraft André Borschberg and the Solar Impulse team built.

Ending gloriously with a colorful flight formation from the Spanish Patrulla Águila, Bertrand Piccard landed in Seville at 5:38AM UTC. This is not a first for aviation, but definitely a first for clean technology.
