imagine flying around the world without
0:04
stopping to refuel this isn't science
0:07
fiction but the ambitious goal of the
0:09
climate impulse project led by aviation
0:12
pioneer bertron picar this
0:14
groundbreaking initiative aims to
0:16
revolutionize air travel using liquid
0:18
hydrogen technology bertron p is no
0:21
stranger to pushing the boundaries of
0:23
flight in 2015 he completed a solar
0:26
power Journey around the globe now he's
0:29
taking on an even greater challenge with
0:31
climate impulse a project designed to
0:33
achieve non-stop Global flight powered
0:36
entirely by liquid green hydrogen at the
0:39
core of this Innovative aircraft is
0:40
liquid hydrogen an energy carrier with
0:43
immense potential green hydrogen is
0:46
produced through electrolysis splitting
0:48
water into hydrogen and oxygen using
0:50
renewable energy the hydrogen is then
0:52
cooled to an extremely low temperature
0:56
253° C and stored in specially designed
0:59
tanks under under the airplane's wings
1:01
when needed the liquid hydrogen reacts
1:04
within a fuel cell to generate
1:05
electricity powering the aircraft's
1:07
motor and propeller the only byproduct
1:10
of this process is water vapor making it
1:13
a zero emission energy source this
1:16
technology enables the climate impulse
1:18
plane to travel an astounding 40,000 km
1:21
without refueling demonstrating the
1:24
viability of liquid hydrogen as a
1:26
sustainable alternative to Conventional
1:30
however working with liquid hydrogen
1:32
presents significant challenges
1:35
Engineers must ensure the tanks remain
1:37
leak proof and maintain cryogenic
1:39
temperatures to prevent evaporation and
1:41
eliminate safety risks managing fuel
1:44
flow efficiently for a 9-day non-stop
1:46
flight adds another layer of complexity
1:48
to this ambitious project the flight
1:51
duration of 9 days is a result of the
1:53
aircraft's unique design priorities to
1:56
achieve long range sustainable flight
1:59
climate impulse operates at slower
2:01
speeds and lower altitudes than
2:03
traditional Jets cruising at just 180
2:07
kmph and flying at an altitude of 10,000
2:10
ft the plane maximizes the efficiency of
2:12
its hydrogen fuel system since it's
2:15
announcement in February 2022 the
2:18
climate impulse project has made
2:19
significant progress the team has
2:22
constructed a cockpit shell begun work
2:24
on the wings and finalized key interior
2:27
elements the next crucial step is
2:29
testing the propulsion systems including
2:31
fuel cells electric motors and propeller
2:35
capabilities the ultimate goal is to fly
2:37
this two- seater aircraft around the
2:39
globe without any stops by 2028 this
2:42
ambitious timeline underscores the
2:44
urgency of developing sustainable
2:47
Technologies climate impulse is more
2:50
than just a technological Marvel it's a
2:53
Beacon of Hope for the aviation
2:55
industry's sustainable future with air
2:57
travel responsible for a growing share
2:59
of Global carbon dioxide emissions green
3:02
hydrogen offers a promising solution for
3:04
Long Hall flights where current electric
3:06
designs fall short by showcasing the
3:09
possibilities of liquid hydrogen
3:10
technology climate impulse provides a
3:13
road map for reducing aviation's carbon
3:15
footprint with a while commercial
3:17
hydrogen powered flights may still be
3:19
years away this project is already
3:21
spurring innovation in hydrogen energy
3:24
that could influence various sectors
3:25
Beyond Aviation Bertram picar and his
3:28
team are not just aiming to set a new
3:30
Aviation record they're Paving the way
3:32
for a cleaner more sustainable future of
3:35
flight AS climate impulse continues to
3:37
push the boundaries of what's possible
3:40
it brings us one step closer to a world
3:42
where air travel and environmental
3:44
responsibility can coexist thanks for
