Description
A Solar Balloon is a balloon that is filled with air and gains buoyancy became the air inside the balloon has been heated by radiation from the sun.
The black balloon material absorbs the sun's rays, causing the air inside the balloon to expand and reduce in density compared to the air outside of the balloon, giving it buoyancy. This balloon functions just like a hot air balloon, with the sun acting as the heat source.
Solar Balloons have been proposed for exploration of the planet Mars, as well as many other scientific uses. How will you use it?
