The Lockheed Stratoliner
As far as aerial navigation is concerned, nothing definite yet has been released as far as the offering for an alternatively powered plane is concerned. There have been attempts to use electric and solar powered planes but for now, nothing seems positive pointing towards the direction.
However, we spot another potential aerial voyager in the Lockheed Stratoliner. The form is based on the form of the Bar Tailed Godwit, designed to fly anywhere without the need to refuel. Apparently this is all thanks to the overgrown wings it was built with together with aid coming from four Cryogenic Hydrogen Turbofan engines.
The creation does seem neat and hopefully it gets some headway as far as addressing the fuel problems the world has to deal with. With a longer travel time paired with alternative sources of power, you can bet that this is one ship that can offer better eco travel. The Lockheed Stratoliner was designed by William Brown.
