| The first solar-powered boat to cross the Atlantic, a 45-foot catamaran named "Sun21" pulled into Miami Thursday, March 29, 2007 after a 29-day crossing. The Swiss boat uses solar cells to drive two motors and cruises at an average of five knots.

Solar power is everywhere and it is growing everyday. We can use it in many ways. This is another great example : )
