Giant solar plane could stay airborne for 5 years, replace some satellites Could theoretically stay up even longer... Solar aviation is still in its infancy, but it's getting better all the time. We might never see big passenger airplanes being solar powered, but there's all kinds of other cool stuff that can be done with this technology. A good example is what Titan Aerospace is doing with its high-altitude solar-powered unmanned plane. As Spectrum writes: "The Solara is intended to loft a payload to 20,000 meters [60,000+ feet] and then keep it [there] for five years, running entirely on solar power. It functions a bit like a satellite, except substantially cheaper and much more versatile. © Titan The Titan Solara 50 solar plane is huuuge. © Titan Aerospace Via IEEE Spectrum, Gizmodo, Titan Aerospace See also: Solar Impulse: Flying from San Francisco to New York City in a solar plane
Duolingo · Tips and Notes @ duome.eu Alphabet 1 updated 2019-11-19 We'll start with some simple sentences right away. Russian does not have articles, nor does it normally use the verb “to be” in the Present tense. An em-dash is used instead of "the verb “to be” between the two nouns: «Мокка — кофе» ("A mocha is coffee"). Russian uses a version of the Cyrillic Alphabet. For information on how to install a Russian keyboard layout, please click here. Letters and Sounds К, О, М, Т, А sound similar to their Latin counterparts (to be more precise, "о" is the sound in "more"). Е actually sounds more like "ye", as in "yell", not as in "Hear ye, hear ye!" В sounds like 'v', Б sounds like 'b'. ⁰ Ёё The umlaut-like double dots are optional in writing. Л can have a flat top, like П, or a pointy top like А (it comes from the Greek Λ). An Italic Г in lower case usually looks this: г. That's it with the introduction! P.S. Basics 1 updated 2018-10-25 Welcome to our course! Now you are ready to proceed to the main part of the tree! Good luck! Hello
