Wonder what sort of maximum airspeed these things can handle?
If they get these things working it would be so cool. It's not as flashy as fusion but it's potentially just as much of a paradigm shift, since jetstreams are so abundant and these airships are so cheap.

I saw a video explaining how those types of prototypes had failed in the past.
that was in the amerikan century, but now we're in the chinese century 
The past happened back then, the future is now
I don't understand how it works but it's steampunk as fuck
at first i read that as a $1500 airborne wind turbine... almost crapped myself
I wonder if they can be scaled down for deployment at residential scale, where wind struggle enormously due to low altitude. If you just gotta attach it to your house and run the power, it would be super fast and easy to install.
I can only hope, that'd be very solar punk
but what about our drones, flying cars, and low flying airplanes?! won't somebody think of the air traffic?!
