So now all we need to do is create a container of anti hydrogen and surround it with an electrical barrier to have our floating cars =)

That annihilate a few city blocks when two cars collide.

Comment I don't want crap smeared on my screen (Score 5, Insightful) 610

Since you're on Slashdot, like me, you have no life and you probably eat lunch sitting at your desk with crap on your hands. I have no need to smear all that over my monitor. With tablets and phones, it's ok because you can grab a corner of your shirt and clean it off. I'm not going to flash my monitor to wipe off my burger grease.

Valid point. A solar powered fleet would limit travel to daylight hours - not just twilight but sun-overhead daylight. East-bound travel would have to start and finish within a short time-span mid-winter. Adding a fuel backup means adding all the infrastructure necessary to convert fuel into motion in addition to electrical systems used for solar energy. By the time you add all that and the fuel, you've exceeded the weight limit that would allow solar-powered flight.
