Solar Impulse 2, the Solar Airplane, will land in Ahmadabad, Gujarat, India - today night around 9:30 PM (March 10, 2015) from Muscat. It is expected to dock in the Airport for a couple of days and will leave to Varanasi, thereafter. During that time, the co-founders of the Solar Impulse project - Bertnard Piccard & Andre Borschberg, and the Solar Impulse team are expected to promote green technologies around the city. I guess visits for public and school children have also been arranged. If you are in/around these two cities, you might want check it out! :)
BTW, Solar Impulse 2's mission is to show the world that it is possible to fly around the world using just solar energy/stored solar energy in batteries, and nothing else. Let's hope Green Tech will make this world a better place to live, without exploiting/destroying natural resources.
You can follow the journey of Solar Impulse 2 LIVE on their website.
Here's another interesting video that shows the making of Solar Impulse 2:
