Compilation of test flights.
Pathfinder Solar Plane preceeded Centurion. Pathfinder turned into Pathfinder+ by removing the original center panel and replacing it with a panel that was about 48 feet in length. Centurion turned into Helios Prototype, which turned into Helios and Helios with a fuel cell. The difference between Centurion and Helios prototype was removing the center panel and adding 2 new center panels. Helios flew with 5 pods and had a full solar array. The fuel cell version was made by removing the center pod and replacing it with the fuel cell pod. That is the one at the end of the video.

This plane is proof of concept but rather inefficient, It may help as weather plane or panels can be used in extraterrestrial missions, But I strongly insist that solar energy isn't the way to go.... We need to find a certain reaction battery that can supply us with a plentiful amount of energy disposable or rechargeable doesn't matter....

No, it's not. Even if humanity would die this planet stays here... it's not going anywhere.
