Solar-powered plane that rises again to fly around the world.

San Francisco: Solar Impulse 2, an experimental plane to fly around the world to draw attention to clean energy technologies, is to take flight again on Monday, organizers said.

Pilot Andre Borsch berg blast off at 12:00 GMT (17:30 CET) taking advantage of a "window of clear time" him to fly from Mojave Desert to Phoenix Goodyear Airport in Arizona - an effort that should take about 16 hours they said.

The aircraft has been in California for a week since crossing the Pacific to land in Mountain View. Swiss adventurer Bertrand Piccard piloted the ship from Hawaii to California.

Piccard, who has been alternating long flights alone with his teammate Borsch berg, he gave his teammate Solar Impulse will be driving across the United States and New York.

The mission aims to promote the use of renewable energies, with 17,000 solar cells driven aircraft.

Wingspan is wider than a jumbo jet, but their weight is more or less the same as a family car.

Solar Impulse based on 2 July last year, when Solar Impulse2 batteries suffered problems halfway through its 21,700 miles (35,000 kilometers) circumnavigation.

The team took few months to repair the damage caused by high tropical temperatures during the first stage of the Pacific, 4,000 miles for a flight between Japan and Hawaii.

The aircraft was flown on that leg Borsch berg, whose route 118 hours sprayed the previous record of 76 hours and 45 minutes, set by American adventurer Steve Fossett in 2006.

Born in Zurich, Borsch berg no stranger to adventure - 15 years ago narrowly escaped an avalanche, and then in 2013 he was involved in a helicopter crash which left him with minor injuries.

The 63-year-old took naps of 20 minutes while controlling the aircraft is maintained during the flight arduous work of Japan, in what his team described as "difficult" conditions.

The Pacific crossing was the most dangerous due to lack of landing sites in case of an emergency.

The solar-powered plane Impulse 2, which stores energy in batteries when the sun does not shine, will stop in New York before transatlantic flight to Europe. From there pilots planned to make their way back to the starting point in Abu Dhabi.
