About SolarStratos, « To the edge of space »
SolarStratos is an adventure of the SolarXplorers SA group. This mission, undertaken by Swiss eco- explorer Raphaël Domjan, pursues the goal of achieving the first stratospheric manned solar flight.
Beyond technological innovations, SolarStratos aims to promote solar energy and the electrification of our society in order to fight greenhouse gas emissions and protect our environment from climate change. SolarStratos also aims to demonstrate that with current technologies, it is possible to achieve feats that exceed the potential of fossil fuels and to fly at high altitude, where no electric and solar aircraft has yet ventured.
