Sky Whale II... feasible?

I would've sworn we had a thread on Oscar Vinals idea from last year but can't find it. (it's referenced in the breathless omg article - the "Skywhale")

But now he's upping the ante to "trip to Mars" fantasy levels, I feel. Apparently we have 40% of the technology already! (Just that those missing 60 points include some pretty high hurdles.)

Zero emissions, hydrogen engines, noiseless.... What's not to love. But within 15 years? I'd be curious to hear some physicists and aeronautics folks' take on this.

ETA: I realize it's a puff piece and not in a scientific journal but couldn't they have phoned, like I dunno, maybe one person to get some balance?
