A man has invented a solar powered plane which he hopes will be able to fly around the world. The plane is 61m wide but weighs just 1,500kg. It uses solar cells, batteries, motors and propellers to enable it to fly at night. It is currently only a prototype but the final version of the plane will try to cross the Atlantic in 2012 in an unmanned flight.
