The possibility of flying non-stop for endless years
is already on the table with the Sky Cruise, a futuristic hotel that floats
above the clouds. Powered by nuclear energy and accommodating up to five
thousand people, the plane comes in an elegant design, boasting the
characteristics of a commercial aircraft and, at the same time, a luxury
cruise. The project includes everything a sophisticated place is entitled to: a
giant hall with a 360º view, shopping centres, swimming pools, restaurants, gyms,
cinema and theatre facicilities, as well as children’s playgrounds. It also
offers space for events and business meetings. If you would like to eternalise
your love above the clouds, this is also possible, enjoying breath taking views
of glittering stars and the aurora borealis. Designed by Tony Holmsten and
animated by Hashem Al-Ghaili, the project defies the laws of physics and
aerodynamics, while guaranteeing harmony with Mother Nature, as it does not
have a carbon footprint. The hotel that promises to endlessly float in the air
without ever running out of fuel, thanks to a nuclear reactor that provides
unlimited power, is quite an ambitious prototype. Incorporating artificial
intelligence, the aircraft hotel would not feel turbulence on the flight,
predicting it minutes before it happens, as well as being equipped with high
technology. We have never been so close to saying goodbye to seasickness and
jet-lag, thanks to a solution that relies on nuclear energy.
