The zero-fuel airplane Solar Impulse 2 landed in Abu Dhabi on Tuesday night, completing at 35,000 kilometer trip across all the continents of the earth powered only by sunlight. Mission Control in Monaco cheered as Balloonist Bertrand Piccard piloted the craft back to the same location from which it took off back in March 2015. Although its 236 foot wingspan is wider than a 747 jumbo jet, the Solar Impulse weighs only 2.3 tons.
