This is a great project and it's an honor to have it in Mountain View.

You mean, began, not begins. Please give us news when we can actually do something about it....like go see what you're talking about. We've had comets the day after, this the day after, and lots of meetings the day after. How about the day before?
Thanks

I agree with Deniece. I read MV Online everyday and if it had been in yesterday's edition, I would have been out there this morning to see it take off. As it was, I heard about it on the radio, hours after they had departed.

Bon Voyage! Sorry I missed the departure, best of luck to the Solar Impulse team - they're making this very difficult feat look easy. Open cockpit, 20,000 feet and -20 degrees in a fragile aircraft.

The Voice is great at telling you what is happening a day after. Uploaded: Thursday, May 2, 4:06 PM but the Flight is May 3 @ 6 AM
However there was limited viewing space and the field was not open to the public.
