Electric Aircraft Geek Out

Could there really be airliners powered by electricity? Time for a Geek Out!

NASA continues to fund various research projects to improve modern airliners by increasing fuel efficiency, decrease emissions and noise. Electric powerplants could help in all those aspects, but how much power can you pack into an aircraft and how much do you need? We're closer than you think!
