A plane partly powered by hydrogen has undertaken a successful first flight in the US, reports say. The aircraft flew for about 15 minutes on March 2. The left side of the plane had a standard engine burning jet fuel, while the engine on the right got its power from hydrogen stored inside the aircraft. “This is certainly the biggest aircraft to have ever flown on hydrogen fuel cells,” Mark Cousin, the chief technical officer of Universal Hydrogen, the company behind the experimental aircraft, said.
