Neglect your hybrid automobile: These days, individuals can travel making use of the wind alone. It's what pushes land yachts that move over snow and ice or roll on wheels over land-- powered by rotors gathering power from the wind upwind.
It's a method that integrates romance, nostalgia and sustainability. However can it work?
3. The Romance of the Land
For centuries man has used wind power on the sea, but two Germans have actually harnessed the winds of the land to complete an epic road trip across Australia. Traveling on a vehicle called the Wind Traveler they harvested energy from the activity of the earth's surface area and converted it into power, allowing them to go across 5,000 km (3,107 miles) with a minimum of fuel. This is a wonderful example of exactly how a business design can grow when based on predicable inputs.
4. The Romance of the Skies
Traditionally, wind power has been used to take a trip on the sea, yet two Germans just recently finished a 5,000 kilometres (3,107 mile) road-trip in their vehicle that converts solar and wind power into electrical power for the wheels. Their appropriately called Wind Explorer uses both sails and blades to collect the power of the wind. It's not uncommon for the rotor-powered cars to attain ground rates that exceed that of the wind, even when taking a trip directly downwind.
One of the most appealing enigmas in aviation includes an air-borne Agatha Christie thriller, an Agatha Christie at 10,000 feet-- Love of the Skies, a Pan Am flight that vanished in 1959, with 42 hearts aboard. The plane's loss confused Civil Aeronautics Board detectives, whose examination was tedavi gathered "no probable cause." Ken and I are hoping that at some point the taxicab will certainly resume the inquiry with 21st century technology, to learn what truly happened. Possibly the tape will certainly reveal an explosion, or a struggle in the cabin with a psycho, or the raucous increasing scream of a runaway prop.
