In the early and mid-20th century, hydrogen balloons were used extensively in upper-atmosphere research in such projects as Osoaviakhim-1, the Stratobowl launches, Project Manhigh, and Project Strato-Lab. A series of ascensions set a number of high-altitude records before space flight eclipsed ballooning as an endeavor. [48]
A balloon can only have buoyancy if there is a medium that has a higher average density than the balloon itself. Balloons cannot work on the Moon because it has almost no atmosphere. [14] Mars has a very thin atmosphere – the pressure is only 1 ⁄ 160 of earth atmospheric pressure – so a huge balloon would be needed even for a tiny lifting ...
