According to a Live Science report, the company says that hydrogen-based electric air taxis can offer such journeys in the future, which will be emission-free. Long distance travel can be done with them. The special thing was that even after the flight, 10 percent of hydrogen fuel was left in the air taxi, which means it could have flown more.
