Fun fact: Quasimodo actually has the phantom eye gene so as he ages he'll look like this it's a bit rare to see bc it is unknown how to breed for this, it makes me wonder how much his previous owners paid for him just to abuse, neglect, and eventually abandoned him....what a shame

Boing’s Phantom Eye – The Amazing Ford Pickup In The Sky

Boing’s Phantom Eye Uses Ford Pickup Engines!

The autonomous aircraft, with its 150-foot wingspan and powered by energy-efficient liquid hydrogen, lifted off its launch cart and climbed to an altitude of 4,080 feet into the desert sky above Edwards Air Force Base, Calif.

Phantom Eye

Today I sat in on a project meeting for this: http://www.boeing.com/Features/2013/02/bds_phantom_eye_02_26_13.html

Got to walk around it and see it up close, and learn cool things that I can't tell you about :D I also met and spoke with the lady in this video, that is the flight test conductor. All in all pretty cool day.

Phantom Eye's wingspan is 150ft (46m).

It's designed to fly at 65,000ft and fly for 4 days.

It's capable of carrying 450 pounds payload. Only three me?!

Boeing Phantom Eye Make's Second Flight

Boeing Phantom Work's latest drone project, the Phantom Eye, has made it's second flight out of Edwards AFB in California. The flight lasted just over an hour and gave the flight engineering team a host of in flight and landing data. Testing will continue throughout the year as they expect to fly to an altitude of 65,000 feet and for a minimum of four days without re-fueling. The company is self-funding the green project; it runs on liquid nitrogen and only leaves water vapor in it's trail. The Phantom Eye was built in St. Louis between 2009 and 2011 before being shipped to California.
