Our Platform
Our Vehicle
Our solar-powered high-altitude platform is a breakthrough in sustainable aerial technology, engineered to operate in the stratosphere, above 20 km altitude. Built with lightweight composite wings and advanced solar cells, the aircraft captures energy from the sun and uses onboard batteries to sustain flight through the night. This design enables exceptional endurance without fuel or frequent landings.

Aerospace Implications
Humanity first entered the stratosphere in the 1930s, and Stage 0 now pushes that frontier further. Using ultra-durable materials and solar power, it enables long-duration stratospheric flight with large payloads for enhanced data collection and transmission.
Initial prototypes will support Florida emergency management with real-time disaster and wildfire monitoring. Once proven, the technology and lessons learned will directly inform vehicle designs for sustained flight in the atmospheres of Mars and Venus.
Advanced Payloads
Our solar powered aircraft are engineered as versatile, high-altitude platforms capable of carrying a wide range of advanced payloads for weeks or even months at a time. We have developed our own suite of instruments, including atmospheric sampling systems for climate and air-quality research, high-resolution imaging payloads for Earth observation and disaster monitoring, and robust communication-relay packages that provide beyond-line-of-sight connectivity in remote or contested areas. These modular, low-power systems take full advantage of the aircraft’s near-continuous solar energy supply and stratospheric persistence.
If you have a sensor, experiment, or technology demonstration that could benefit from long-endurance, high-altitude flight—whether scientific, commercial, defense, or telecommunications—we’d love to hear from you. Contact our payload integration team to discuss custom accommodation, power budgets, data downlink options, and flight-test opportunities on this unique solar aircraft platform. Let’s put your payload in the stratosphere.
