Solar-Powered Sky Explorer

Launch a giant airship with sunlight and discover the science of heat, lift, and renewable energy in action!

Watch the power of the sun take flight! This giant 3 by 1 metre solar airship soars skyward when sunlight warms the air inside its lightweight black plastic tube. As the air heats and becomes lighter than the surrounding air, the whole airship gently rises — a fascinating way to explore solar energy, air density, and lift. An inspiring hands-on experiment in renewable energy and atmospheric science.
