A Whole New Kind of Hydroplane

Hydrogen-powered plane makes successful flight 0

A plane powered by hydrogen fuel cells made three successful test flights earlier this year, Boeing officials announced Thursday. The propeller-driven two-seater, carrying passengers, climbed to 3,300 feet on the power of lithium batteries, then cruised at 60 miles per hour for about 20 minutes powered solely by fuel cells. Sounds like they've got the Wright stuff! (Ooh, that was bad even for us. Sorry.)
