| | Using energy derived from the sun by day and from fuel cells at night, the Helios Prototype was designed as the forerunner of high-altitude unmanned aerial vehicles that could fly on ultra-long duration environmental science or telecommunications relay missions lasting for weeks or months without using consumable fuels or emitting airborne pollutants. | | | Unfortunately, the program suffered a major setback when the Helios experienced control difficulties while on a checkout flight on June 26, 2003, and the aircraft suffered some structural failures and was subsequently destroyed when it fell into the Pacific Ocean about 10 miles west of the Hawaiian island of Kauai. | | | The electricity is used to power the Helios Prototype and the water is returned to a storage tank until the morning, when the sun comes up and the cycle starts all over again. |
