An airship does not need to constantly fight gravity.
Its task is not to keep itself aloft by force, but to control its motion within the medium.

Gennady Babanin went into detail on this in another episode of the podcast IN LAYMAN'S TERMS, based on the works of the outstanding engineer Alexander Kirillin.

What topics were discussed in this episode?
• The three main types of lift: aerodynamic, reactive, and aerostatic.
• The principle of airship flight and its similarity to the buoyant properties of seagoing ships.
• How an airship’s lift depends on its size.
• The airship’s equilibrium state and the influence of external factors on its balance.

Just as a ship on the water expends no energy to stay afloat, an airship remains in the air in a state of buoyancy.

The key question: are we ready to acknowledge once again that in the air one can not only fly but also float?

The "New Generation Airships" project confidently answers: yes!
Even today, the project’s engineers are reviving lighter-than-air aviation, relying on time-tested solutions while implementing modern technologies.

We will discuss the engineering features of airships in the next episode of the podcast IN LAYMAN'S TERMS.
