If by soon you mean maybe in 50 years or so.

Oh, wow, a single place airplane that can fly for all of 2 hours.

Whoopee.

It will fly for 20 hours by using the proven battery
technology which has already been developed at
the Univ. of Maryland. The "self-assembly" prevalent
with nanoengineering was achieved with the M13
tobacco virus, creating an energy density ten times
that of a lithium ion battery.

You mean it will fly powered by a breathless press release and doesn't
need a battery that is actually in production?

You mean it should be kept a secret until they
carry it at Walmart? (cause you keep implying this)

No, I mean it doesn't exist as a production item and probably won't in the
lifetime of anyone currently reading this.

The value of a press release is the value of the paper it is printed on at
the recycle center.

Guess you don't know what proof of concept means.

I know what "proof of concept" means.

What you don't seem to know is that "proof of concept" does not mean any
of "producable", "in production", "practical", or "affordable".
