AEROSOLAR LIFT
The Aerocene Backpack and its entailed aerosolar sculpture becomes airborne using only the powers of air and sunlight. Openly accessible to anyone, the process of launching an aerosolar sculpture into the sky is an unforgettable way to experience the Aerocene epoch.
Unlike most airborne vessels, the Aerocene Backpack releases zero carbon emissions and uses zero fossil fuels. Aerocene is the future of air travel and habitation, utilising natural resources more sustainably.
All tethered flights and other activities conducted with the Aerocene Backpack included envelope and Museo Aero Solar -either self built or borrowed, will be at your sole risk and responsibility. Read more about safety below.
