A robot plane is due to take off from Newfoundland later this month and fly
3000 kilometres across the Atlantic to Ireland without human intervention. The
flight—on 7 August, weather permitting—should take 24 hours. The
14-kilogram plane has been designed by researchers at the University of
Washington and a local technology company, Insitu. The team’s ultimate aim is to
build a robot plane capable of collecting weather data.
