Google is in the verge of acquiring the Mexican Titan Aerospace. This start-up builds unmanned solar powered vehicles that can fly for long distances and durations.
This news comes after Facebook bought Ascenta another UK-based drone start-up. The Titan technology will probably be used in Google’s Project Loon, which aims to deliver Internet services into remote areas.
Titan will likely also work with another Google purchase, Makani Power, which is developing high-altitude turbines.
