    If we managed to make baloons holding vacuum instead of needing expensive/explosive hydrogen or helium would blimps make a comeback?

    How have you not drowned in a glass of water.
    >>
    >>65621528
    Hydrogen and helium work literally 95% as well as vaccuum would without having to create a balloon made out of a physically impossible material
    This question could easily have been googled, which is what I did and am summarizing for you. Youre welcome.
    >>
    >>65621692
    We're running out of helium.
    >>
    What is with this zero effort negative IQ frog threads and how are they not deleted on sight?
    >>
    >>65621711
    Thats been long debunked.
    Supply chain issues =/= running out of helium
    Regardless, vaccuum balloons are not an alternative, as they physically cannot exist.
    >>
    >>65621538
    Vaccum weighs less than helium or hydrogen, dumbass.
    >>
    >>65621528
    Your balloon would need to be made of diamond.
    >>
    >>65621528
    Balloons can already hold vacuum. You can vacuum the air right the fuck out of a balloon. And it won't float because it isn't buoyant.

    >vacuum balloon

    >needs to be build as a pressure vessle

    Honestly, retarded as this thread is, now I am kind of curious. Can you actually design a vacuum vessle that is light enough to actually achieve lift off?
    It should be possible in theory...

    >>65621528
    Next time do the lowest effort google search possilbe and skim the wikipedia article.
    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vacuum_airship
    >>
    >>65623872
    So use a rigid balloon.
    >>
    >>65624235
    Wikipedia is lame and administered by literal faggots.

    ...what

    >>65621711
    Just fuse hydrogen. It's not rocket surgery.

    >Hydrogen and helium work literally 95% as well as vaccuum
    Show math.
    >>
    >>65624308
    Not an argument against a specific article you illiterate nigger.

    They can, it's just classified.

    Lead would also work.

    >Hydrogen - 0.0899 kg/m3 - 13.5 times lighter than air
    >Helium - 0.1785 kg/m3 - 6.7 times lighter than air
    >Vacuum - 0.00 kg/m3 - INFINITE times lighter than air

    Tell me anon, which is greater? 13.5 or INIFNITY (Assuming structural elements can be ignored :^)

    It's easy we just need a material that is half the density of diamond while having 50% greater stiffness

    Infinity minus 1 will always float higher.

    Like my cock? It literally levitates in your mom's pussy.
