Title: Hydrogen-powered jet set to take to the sky
Post by: Jolly Blue Giant on January 16, 2024, 12:28:36 PM
I find this area of engineering to be intriguing, to say the least. A company called "Sirius" has developed two different hydrogen-fueled aircraft that is going through testing and will debut next year. It will be the first zero-emission jet with long range capability. For now, it is only "Business Jet" size, but larger sizes are planned. It has vertical takeoff and landing capabilities like a helicopter. This area of technology is fascinating...to me anyway. I really hope hydrogen is the future of energy propulsion. I have too much money wrapped up in hydrogen companies' stock while betting on it.    :crazy:

You're talking to the Choir. Hydrogen should have been the way to go.
