  • (1888PressRelease) August 02, 2016 - You've seen these in cartoons but nobody thought that they would come to life, ever! Glen Martin has come up with the first jetpack that actually works. The New Zealander has been working on his creation for the last 30 years and finally he is ready to sell it. This iconic space-age way of moving from one place to the next no longer just exists in sci-fi movies and cartoons.

    TIME Magazine listed the Martin Jetpack in its list of top 50 inventions in the year 2010. They went ahead to call it the first practical jetpack that the world had seen. The jetpack is a backpack that allows you to fly for half an hour at a time. It has ducted fans that power it. Using the jetpack, you can move at a maximum speed of 46 miles per hour, equivalent to 74 kph.

    "Can you imagine gliding about a kilometer over the ground? You can do so with the Martin Jetpack!" said Michael Tornabe, head of the Logan Bus Company. "And this is achieved by simply strapping a backpack on." The Martin Jetpack flies at 900 meters above ground. That is 3000 feet.

    This pack will be used initially by emergency teams and firefighters and is right now being developed for use by first responders. "However, it will soon be on sale for personal use for those willing to part with $200,000 to buy one." said Mike Tornabe.

    Travel in the future is not just about trains, automobiles and ships. There are zip lines and jetpacks as well. You can be sure that if you have imagined it, it is being made by someone somewhere. All of these different modes of transportation will be shaping our world in the next ten years and we should all be excited to have them.

    The idea behind all of these different modes of transport is increased speed, reduction in fuel consumption, and use of alternative energy sources, comfort, and many other different advantages. No more sitting in traffic for hours. Green travel alternatives are preferred and innovators are encouraged to come up with innovations that will conserve energy and reduce greenhouse emissions.
