Solar Ship Wins Grant for North American Mission, Seeks Funds for African Enterprise
Solar ship seems just too good to be true! A helium-filled, zero emissions cargo plane, with a huge wing span that absorbs maximum solar power, at a lightweight 1,200lbs, solar ship gains lift from buoyant gases from the earth. Its wing-ship design allows it to land in strange places, devoid of roads or runways. Solar ship has recently been awarded a grant to build a new model to fly emergency supplies during times of crisis, man-made and natural disaster, to communities in North America. In addition, solar ship has been operating out of Cape Town to take medical supplies to remote areas of Africa.
While funding for their North American initiative is secured, funds for the African mission are far short. Sponsorship drives are being run for solar ship’s African mission in collaboration with indiegogo.
