Fantastic new solar aircraft can continue flys for five years

According to foreign media reports, has been flying in the air, the dream of mankind, although aircraft can achieve this dream, but pollution and endurance of aircraft has been a thorny issue. Now, a new type of solar-powered vehicle that can help mankind to achieve sustainable flying in the air, and the dream to protect the environment.
The aircraft is not a UFO (UFO), but an Odysseus (Odysseus) solar-powered aircraft, the conditions are ripe in the case of continuous flight in the air for 5 years.
 
The Z-wing aircraft has a wingspan of up to 150 meters, so this form of the aircraft to enable it to adjust the stance in the sun to absorb as much solar energy. When in the dark, it is to maintain wings level flight the flight line to achieve maximum aerodynamic efficiency, with the stored energy in the battery plate to drive the aircraft's electric motor.
The design of the aircraft altitude in 60 000 -9 million square feet, so it can be in military reconnaissance, communications and environmental monitoring and other fields to play a specific function, such as conducting climate change research, you can not pollute the environment in circumstances upper-air observations.
