Defining the future: solar-powered plane takes to the skies

Description

Could this be the future of the aviation industry? A solar-powered aircraft that can fly both day and night has taken off, as more and more inventors try to harness the power of the sun. While it's not the first time a plane powered solely by the sun has become airborne, it could lead to the first time such an aircraft has circumnavigated the globe.
