Unique Plane Tech Concept: 5-Star Resort
Sky Cruise: Gigantic Nuclear-Powered Aircraft
Room for 5,000 Guests and Endless Flights
The Sky Cruise is a fantastical, pure science fiction airplane concept that in all likelihood defies the laws of aerodynamics and physics, but in this time of an aviation technological renaissance, who knows!! It's a huge, nuclear-powered aircraft envisioned to be a 5-star resort in the skies. It's the fascinating invention of Swedish Art Director Tony Holmsten that has been brought to life through animation by Yemini biotechnologist and video producer Hashem Al-Ghaile, who created the images of the airplane concept. This 5-star flying hotel can hold 5,000 guests and thanks to nuclear power it would be capable of flying for years without landing. The e-plane is a combination spaceship and cruise ship on steroids. It's a fascinating, futuristic travel idea to think about over the lazy 4th of July holiday weekend.
New Technologies Supporting This Flying Machine
The aircraft's fuel source is nuclear energy which would power its 20 electric engines. A small nuclear reactor is right onboard. It uses highly controlled nuclear fusion reaction to provide endless energy and the fuel for "endless" flights. The plane is autonomous, and the pilot is artificial intelligence (AI). Any air turbulence is avoided by the AI behind the controls. For the passengers, the plane is a flying resort with entertainment centers, swimming pools, shopping malls, movie theatres, a medical center, business meeting facilities and 360-degree views. It is the ultimate in luxury and technologies. And, incredibly, the passengers arrive by planes that land on top of the Sky Cruise. In 2040 or so, would you book a trip on Sky Cruise? It certainly would be the ultimate flying adventure.
What a Fantastic Concept, But There are Skeptics
Many readers are fascinated by the bold, new dimensions of this unprecedented and avant-garde form of travel innovation. They are focused on and fascinated by the potential technologies to support its flight and the new possibilities of travel and vacations that it might offer. Others are not so sure. Some critics are calling it the "new Titanic" because of the many, mammoth design issues needed to be overcome such as the huge weight of the plane impacting takeoff and its aerodynamics. Not to mention the fact that there is a nuclear reactor onboard as the power source. I thought you would enjoy learning about the Sky Cruise as a highly innovative aircraft on the possible future horizon of aircraft and flying.
