I think a solar powered round the world flight is possible, but it will need to be a bigger flatter bag blimp with more area for solar panels and batteries for the night. If you want to see more on modern airships, past, present and future see: www.airshipblimp.com or if you just want a helium sniffing laugh try www.airship.me the worlds only lighter than air comedy site, with lots of funny pictures and U tube links fit for all the family.
