This Internet through solar-based plane is a part of the bigger Internet.org project that Facebook is launching in India. Daniels stated that Facebook is working on alternate low cost internet delivery technologies other than traditional ways of providing connectivity including solar planes and satellites. By using solar-based planes to provide Internet access to Indian users, Facebook hopes to keep the cost of providing Internet very low. Also as a part of its Internet.org launch, it has invited Indians to enter into a contest which can help it deliver Internet.org to remotest parts of the country. Facebook has asked entries for its “Internet.org Innovation Challenge” and will award a massive $250,000 to the winners If you are interested in entering this contest, kindly visit Internet.Org Innovation Challenge page here.
