  Solar Powered Falcon Soar                                                  Source:  Falcon Solar Highly Innovative Aircraft Concept Falcon Soar is one of the world's most innovative, new concept planes.  Designed by Lazlo Nemeth, the award-winning founder of Lasky Design in Budapest, Hungary, the solar powered aircraft greatly resembles a falcon. In fact, the designer says the design was inspired by the bodies of birds of prey.  Birds are incredibly energy efficient and agile.  Falcon Soar, with solar panels embedded across the top of the plane and its wings, is designed to emulate the flight and the efficiency of soaring falcons.  As a solar power aircraft, there are no emissions and no damage to the environment. Ridding the Skies of Plane Greenhouse Gas Emissions Falcon Soar is designed to be a passenger plane ...

Turning Air Friction into Electrical Energy For Electric Planes Source:  The Eather One Electric Plane Concept Green, Clean Flying A new electric aircraft concept, named The Eather One, is powered by pure air.  Specifically, stratospheric air friction to create electric energy to fly the plane.  The air friction can be seen in action behind a high flying jet that leaves a plume of white smoke across the sky in its wake.  The plume holds for quite some time because there is very little air circulation in the stratosphere.  When a high speed aircraft cuts through the higher atmosphere, it generates tremendous air friction and vibrations.  Tapping into that tremendous source of energy is the concept behind Eather One that future aircraft may capitalize on. Electric Flying with Nanogenerators on the Wings The concept plane is equipped with triboelectric nanogenerators on its wings and across the top of the aircraft. The  nanogene...
