A hydrogen fueled aircraft

The first hydrogen-fueled plane that will be able to fly around the world ✈

Due to climate change, technologies are being worked on around the world which are environment friendly and do not emit toxic gases.

A team of French experts is working on the development of a hydrogen-powered aircraft that will be able to travel around the world.

This plane

 Climate Impulse

 It has been named which will be able to circumnavigate the globe in just 9 days using environmentally friendly hydrogen fuel.

The research team is led by Bertrand Picard from Switzerland, who previously conducted a solar-powered plane that circumnavigated the globe between 2015 and 2016.

 Solar Impulse

 Was part of the team that developed the

Bertrand Picard believes that the hydrogen fueled aircraft will be the mainstay of the aviation industry.

The first round-the-world flight of this aircraft is targeted for 2028, while its test flights will begin in 2026.

Bertrand Picard said that solar-powered aircraft could not be used for commercial flights because large batteries would waste too much energy.

He said that we believe that hydrogen fueled aircraft will be more effective.

He further said that many people believe that eco-friendly flights are not possible but our developed aircraft will challenge this idea.

The design of this aircraft will also be quite unique and according to Bertrand Picard it will be built mainly around hydrogen tanks.

The aircraft will have a small central cabin for the pilots and 2 large tanks to store liquid hydrogen.

A thin wing would connect all of these together, while each tank had a propeller and a tail

 so that the flight remains stable.

The biggest challenge for this aircraft right now is keeping the hydrogen in liquid form during flight at very low temperatures.

Rafael Danieli, involved in the design and manufacturing process of this aircraft, said that the biggest challenge would be to maintain hydrogen in liquid form even at minus 253 degrees Celsius.

That is why a team of experts is working on developing a thermal fuel tank that can maintain fuel in liquid form during a 9-day flight.

Other parts of the aircraft will also be manufactured using the latest technologies and materials

liquid water discovered on Mars

liquid water discovered on Mars This is the first clear evidence of liquid water, not just frozen ice, discovered on Mars. A groundbreaking discovery published in Science has confirmed that Mars once had liquid water, offering new insights into the planet’s climate and potential for supporting life.  Researchers analyzing data from NASA’s Curiosity rover identified ancient "wave ripples" in rocks at the Gale Crater region, dating back 3.7 billion years. These ripples, formed by wind and water, indicate the presence of a shallow, open-air lake about 2 meters (6.5 feet) deep.  The discovery highlights a time when Mars had a warmer climate and a thicker atmosphere capable of sustaining liquid water — a critical ingredient for life as we know it. This revelation has far-reaching implications for understanding Mars' habitability and planning future missions.  The presence of liquid water raises the possibility that microbial life once thrived on the planet. Additionally, remna...

A black diamond

A black diamond that is actually an apple? Of course, you have seen apples of various colors including green and red, but there is one region in the world where black apples grow. By the way, the color of this apple is deep violet, but it looks black, which is why it is called in English  (black diamond apple)  is called and it is found only in Tibet. The black diamond apple stands out from other apples due to its luxurious appeal and rarity and also arouses people's curiosity. The distinctive color of the black diamond apple is actually attributed to the unique geographical location of Ningchi, a small town nestled among the mountains in the Tibet Autonomous Region of China. Apples found at high altitudes are exposed to intense ultraviolet light during the day, causing significant temperature fluctuations. Such climatic conditions contribute to the production of the characteristic black color of the apple. Although the inside of the black diamond apple is like a regular apple...

Strong and secure shelters Switzerland is the only country in the world that can evacuate all its citizens (114%) to underground safe rooms, whenever an emergency occurs. There are more than 300,000 strong and secure shelters, all of which can shelter a total of 8.6 million people, compared to the country's current population of 8.3 million. Switzerland's security system is highly organized and prepared for all types of emergency situations, making it unique worldwide. The special feature of this system is that it is capable of sheltering not only every citizen but also additional persons, and its structure is based on the following features: 1. Number and capacity of underground shelters There are more than 300,000 shelters in Switzerland, most of which are underground and made of reinforced concrete. These shelters can provide protection to a total of 8.6 million people, compared to the country's current population of about 8.3 million. This means that space is reserved f...
