The story of Jacob Brodbeck, a German immigrant in Fredericksburg, Texas, who reportedly flew a winged aircraft in 1860, is shared. This flight occurred 44 years before the Wright brothers' success at Kitty Hawk, though it ended in a crash into a chicken coop. A model of Brodbeck's spring-powered airplane is on display at the local Gillespie County Airport.

### Solar Impulse 2, Clean Energy Feasibility

- **Episode:** [819: non-binary person](https://search.noagendashow.net/episode/819-non-binary-person.md)
- **Published:** 2016-04-24
- **Time:** 2:13:01–2:17:34
- **Transcript:** https://search.noagendashow.net/episode/819-non-binary-person/chapter/solar-impulse-2-clean-energy-feasibility.md

The Solar Impulse 2, a solar-powered aircraft, is criticized as it attempts a flight around the world. The hosts argue that its top speed of 35 mph and fragile design demonstrate the poor power-to-weight ratio of current solar technology. They compare it unfavorably to the Wright brothers' early achievements and fossil-fuel-powered aviation, dismissing it as a "technological marvel" that lacks practical utility.
