The AeroCar ~
The
car in the image is known as 'AeroCar', the first vehicle that can fly
in the air - or the first plane that can also circulate on the
highway. It was permitted to fly as well as to run on the ground in
1949, and now it is on sale for a trifle price of 970,000 €. This
machine can reach 176 kilometres per hour in the air, and 96 on the
road.
Without any doubt, the most difficult thing for the owner would be where on earth can you park it?
A home-made solar vehicle ~
A
19 year old Chinese young man, Zhu Zhenlin, has just constructed this
solar car all by himself, which permits him to circulate in his native
city of Hengheng, China, without contaminating the environment. With
infinite patience and using only scrapes he found round the city, he
completed his dream of building his own car right there in the garage
of his house. Initiative and ambition this young guy certainly doesn't
lack, and he hopes some multinational would engage him.
Not that his car is a paragon of streamlining example, but it works.
