Wow! I sure hope they succeed. They sure are flying the best plane for the task ;)

I wouldn't want to spend 65 days inflight in a 747 -- a 172 would be tough.

They didn't mention bathing or restroom use....wipes for the first, bags for the 2nd -- now where to stow the bag.   :D

Wonder how they're doing the refueling?
