World’s first hybrid-electric cruise ship steams into Vancouver harbour | Globalnews.ca
NASA Takes Delivery of X-57 Maxwell – First All-Electric Experimental Aircraft
Solar Impulse - Wikipedia
The cruise ship that docked in Vancouver last summer is just a hybrid at this point but the Solar Impulse 2 aircraft can stat aloft for 36 hours and completed a circumnavigation of the earth in 2016. Took 'way longer than expected because the batteries suffered thermal damage and the repairs took months but they completed it, 26,000 miles on solar power.
Day's coming, fast. Like I say, maybe not in my lifetime but the way we move around will be much different by the time my son is my age. Hell, the sun's energy is just to huge and too easily available not to use.
My grandfather broke his leg crashing a motorcycle into the back end of a horse-drawn milk wagon. My grandson might be cursing a gas-powered car that's in his way.
Electric ships and aircraft? I'll believe it when it happens.
