If a joint European and Japanese development comes to fruition, in 2050, the Zehst will take you from London to Tokyo in 2 and half hours, cruising at an altitude of 2 miles, emitting no pollution, all on the power of seaweed. Tasty and powerful.

The plane will take off using biofuel made from seaweed or algae and switch to 2 other forms of propulsion above the atmosphere and the stratosphere. All three methods of propulsion are designed to meet future ecological constraints and cut down noise levels. The EADS called it a rocket plane.
