THE WORLD’S LARGEST AIRCRAFT BREAKS COVER IN SILICON VALLEY

Summary from the TLDR newsletter

Google co-founder Sergey Brin's Pathfinder 1 prototype electric airship is set to embark on a series of test flights over Silicon Valley. It will take increasingly ambitious flights until it moves to Ohio, where an even larger airship is being built. Pathfinder 1 is the largest aircraft to take to the skies since the Hindenberg. Brin's company, LTA Research, hopes to use the airships to provide disaster relief where roads and airports are damaged and provide zero-carbon passenger transportation.
