The Greek god Helios was said to drive the sun around the sky with his chariot(战车). But now, these idea
30、s have all changed. Nowadays, it is the sun that drives our “chariot” around the sky.So what does all this mean? Well, quite simply, there is now a plane (or “chariot”) that is powered by the sun. It has special parts in its wings. These parts absorb power from the sun. They absorb so much power tha

33、t have to burn anything, and theres no pollution.Solar energy is not all there yet. It needs to be improved. But the best thing about it is that, unlike coal and gas, it doesnt run out.
