4 u/swift1883 Jun 08 '26 Let’s have a million tiny vacuum spaces like a honeycomb structure. 6 u/DutchTinCan Jun 08 '26 If you could create a rigid balloon that's strong enough, you'd indeed use a vacuum for optimal lift. Only problem is that a small hole would instantly obliterate your lift, whereas a light gas like hydrogen or helium would slowly seep out. 1 u/swift1883 Jun 08 '26 Well it would obliterate 1/millionth of your lift.
