Solar Airship

We’re fascinated by things which fly without the use of electricity or fuel power; that was just nature’s intention for humans. The Solar Airship was wholly successful in achieving this and it’s powered solely by the sun. You’ve seen kites and balloons before, but we guarantee you’ve never seen anything like this.

The Solar Airship is an amazing eight metre long cylindrical aircraft made from heat attracting plastic. It only needs a small amount of sunlight to cause the air inside to expand and lift the airship into the sky. After just a few minutes of collecting the solar power you’ll be able to tether it with a rope and watch it float around the sky for hours. It’s hardly ‘new technology’ and the concept is so simple you’re bound to be kicking yourself for not thinking of it yourself but it’s always the simplest things in life which provide the most pleasure and intrigue.

If it’s a nice day when she arrives in the post just run down to the park and float her up! Not many people are likely to know exactly what your amazing contraption is but it’ll look great bobbing and weaving through the sky as you control it from the ground. It works on so many levels as well: it could act as a sky-buoy for your friends and family to navigate with as they try and find you in a large crowd of people, perhaps you’ll simply use it as a kite or who knows; maybe it’ll get reported as a UFO!
