<p>The Solar Impulse team said in a news release that it will continue the around-the-world attempt, but irreversible damage caused by overheating batteries has grounded the flight until at least April.</p>
<p>Solar Impulse says the batteries overheated on the first day of the trip from Japan to Hawaii and that there was no way to cool down the system.</p>
<p>The company says there was no weakness with the technology, but the team did not anticipate temperature fluctuations associated with rapid altitude changes in a tropical climate.</p>
<p>The plane will be housed in a University of Hawaii hangar at the Kalaeloa airport on Oahu while repairs are made.</p>
