Aeronautical this is a great achievement as well as a great technological achievement. It does not mean one damn thing relative to carrying me from Austin to Houston and knowing when I will take off and land. Actually I have done that, but not that route. A greater distance but in a glider. I used zero electrons except for my radios.

Solar Impulse 2: A 5,100 pound (loaded) one passenger solar powered airplane with a 236 ft.wingspan. It can take off under its own power.
Nice gadget.
