Project cofounder Bertrand Piccard, himself a recordbreaking balloonist, said many people had been skeptical that renewable energy could ever be used to take a man into the air and keep him there. “It’s a matter of time that people come to believe and understand about renewable energies,”Piccard said, adding that the flight was proof that new technologies can help break society’s dependence on fossil fuels.
The team will now set its sights on an Atlantic crossing, before attempting a roundtheworld flight in 2017, making only five stops along the way. “It’s absolutely not time to relax,” said Piccard.
