An airship (1) comprising gas envelope means for providing in use a hull (2) with a generally longitudinally extending longitudi-nal axis (20) and solar cell array means (3) arranged in use to be mounted on the outside of the hull (2). The solar array means (3) are arranged in use to extend around only a part of the circumference of the hull (2) and are turned about the longitudinal hull axis (20) to control the amount of incident solar radiation collected by the solar cell array means (3).

La présente invention concerne un dirigeable (1) comprenant une enveloppe de gaz constituant lors de l'utilisation une coquille (2) avec un axe généralement longitudinal (20) et un réseau de cellules solaires (3) conçues pour être montées à l'extérieur de la coquille (2). Le réseau de cellules solaires (3) est placé de façon à s'étendre autour d'une seule partie de la circonférence de la coquille (2). Ce réseau est amené à tourner autour de l'axe longitudinal (20) de la coquille afin de contrôler le volume du rayonnement solaire incident recueilli par le réseau de cellules solaires (3).
