中国科研团队成功研制出巴掌大小的太阳能动力微型无人机，能够依靠自然光持续飞行。相关研究成果在国际学术期刊《自然》杂志上发表。 Chinese scientists have developed a palm-size solar-powered drone, which can fly continuously as long as it receives sunlight, according to a research article published in the journal Nature. 北京航空航天大学科研团队研制的太阳能微型无人机。（图片来源：新华社） 【知识点】 微型飞行器得益于小体积、轻质量、高机动等特点，能够在狭小空间执行拍照、探测和运输等特种任务，在国民经济领域拥有广泛应用前景。 然而此类飞行器普遍存在飞行时间短的痛点问题，尤其当重量小于10克时，其飞行时间一般不超过10分钟。 北京航空航天大学研制的静电飞行器“CoulombFly”（Coulomb意为库仑，是电荷单位）翼展20cm，重4.21g。该飞行器主要由静电发动机和超轻质高压电源组成，具备低功耗（0.568瓦）和高升力（30.7克每瓦）优势，首次实现了微型飞行器在纯自然光供能下的起飞和持续飞行。 在本成果之前，此领域的最高水平成果是哈佛大学2019年在Nature发表的RoboBee飞行器，但仍需采用人工光源（三倍太阳光）才能实现持续飞行，而本成果仅依靠自然光即可实现持续飞行，可极大拓展此类飞行器的使用范围，在微型飞行器的发展进程中具有里程碑意义。 【重要讲话】 坚持面向世界科技前沿、面向经济主战场、面向国家重大需求、面向人民生命健康，加快实现高水平科技自立自强。以国家战略需求为导向，集聚力量进行原创性引领性科技攻关，坚决打赢关键核心技术攻坚战。 Setting our sights on the global frontiers of science and technology, national economic development, the major needs of the country, and the health …
