Through your taxes out there, or in your maximum refund, in your pocket visit each hour, block dot com, slash textile, define the closest office to you, it's better with black

Welcome to stop. You should know from house, therefore extend a very warm welcome to the progress than Josh Clark. There's chose the beach I prying injurious with this makes the stuff you should know, pay doing good man. This is I'm excited about this. How are you sure glimpse? Does they have like these names? Blimp searchable, Zepplin, airship? Well, technically, Peltier. Wider than airship yet, which I think is ultimately lighter than airship. Althea is the umbrella term for all of those things which are slightly different

yet the Elsie AY and an airship as all of em. The derivable is all of them, as everyone is rigid and blankets non rented nice, and mostly we dissembling these days. Now let rigid airships Arthur brings with it with a constant yeah. No further stated they can be semi wretcheder non rigid, right, yeah, and I think the future will talk about that. I was at the end, but I think those are some of those or more of the same are rigid style wrecked yeah, but their made of some really lightweight but very strong composite materials boom. So chuckling somewhat the history books, because I think when anybody thinks of boy imps, they think Hindenburg. They think they think the Hamburg and then maybe concurrent all right after the Goodyear, violent yeah, The two that really laid it on the line for blimp them.

Yeah should mean. Aren't you wanna talk about the early history lesson and get to the tragedy near because there was, much time between the two to tell you the truth, yeah mean that all started, of course, with hot air balloons, because they're not so different in seventeen. Eighty three, a couple of fringes: brothers, Jack: it's here and Joseph Michel- they said they were brothers, but a different last night. Think jockey Theon is first middle name, Boca them, except they had three names like manner: you'll kill, mom Garcia the hot air balloon an unmanned hot air balloon and seventeen. The three and then later that same year, a french physicists last named Rosier had the first manned balloon flight and they were just floating around because that's what blink Aurora balloons do

Go up and then, if you're really good, you can come back down, but left and right. That's up to mother. Nature has right, which is a little scary, although I think these days in a storm at all, great article on us on. How do I know you're you're, subject to the wind to the there was the God of wind that you know he's like a cloud and blows wind near the guy. You your subject to his whim. So if your headed something it's go over it or hit it. Yes, ok and you remember those that terrible boiling hot air balloon accident. I think Virginia last year earlier this year, not in here yeah like they hit a power line, I think in the basket, caught fire and likely had to jump. It was really bad. While but yes, you can go up and over- and I am angry is under if it's like a parallel yet or a tunnel. If you really get off

are you in a cartoon like the laugh Olympics, yeah, there's something they do in ITALY, but the am, I think, if you really good, probably know where to steer into the wind. It may be used the wind, but no with the blimp. The big distinction is aside from its distinctive shape is that you can maneuver like a pro. That's right, that's what Henry Gerard did in eighteen, fifty two when he finally someone said we should steer these things and he built the first powered airship and it was cigar felt like the classic shape that we know and love now had a propeller like they have now and low engine. Although the steam engine which they dont use now three horse power, steamer yeah, they're, not huge engine, still then take a lot apparently no really doesn't, and that those were a rigid airships. It's it's a metal framework and

Nineteen hundred count Ferdinand VON Zepplin, that name since familiar led Zepplin of Germany and that's where they get the name of course sure does it. I never understood the OECD the lead. Well, it was, I think, someone said as a joke. You guys are going to go over like allege Zepplin where they did when they played on the BBC. He said, but why take the a out? has the same reasoning take day out of death. Leopard I've never understood that is in the same way. You put them out over motley crew is an ethical during its efforts it yet a misspell something in your band. I think I was just look into deeply into. It is the problem yet early eighties Zepplin would be weird yeah, but I think, like our paradigm motive adjusted, we would think Ellie deeds. That plan would be weird if we were used to lead Zepplin with an eye or if the Beatles was Spell B e t Ellie S yeah, instead of their money name very funny, all right boys

get sidetracked, so easy with music stuff. Now really surplus was, I think, people, so they can move by the press play eschew. So that was the rigid airship, the first one in those have a metal framework and it had tail fins and rudders, had combustion engines and could crews it about thirteen hundred feet with up to five people. Yes, not bad, you could bring the whole family as long as you encounter eurozone totalled no more than five. Yet, once you paid off the captain. Well, then, you just have to be a family for kids, the captain'S get somewhere. Together will capture everything was going quite swimmingly. Actually, I'm around the turn of the twentieth century. There there was. There was widely I assume that we would have a future where blips zeppelins we're just a regular feature of the sky. Well, were up until the hindenburg went down. There were more than two thousand flights carried tens of thousands

passengers over a million miles like that was air travel. We could see ultra wealthy passengers at the time shirk. The hindenburg in particular, was was high class. Is the poor, I did not see Germany yeah, I knew- was on its maiden voyage. Wasn't there was almost caught. The Hitler by the way was a really Hitler's. I got a woman named on that thing really yet not that he like foretold the future he just didn't these didn't want is named after it. An airship hidden believe thumb. Freud idea that sometimes the cigars did the cigar, we're or cigar shaped airship is just a cigar shape there and it crashed and burn to say he was probably pretty stopped in whose name on yeah he very famously went through here when he heard the news exactly so probably start making light of this new

Eighty year old tragedy because people they die in a yeah, I'm issue, we tell the story: let's aright, while it took off on my third nineteen, thirty seven had thirty six passengers and sixty one officers and crew members and trainees left Frankfurt. Seven fifteen and then crossed out out over the Atlantic it about to end the next day. It's not super fast travel. It was compared to the ship travel at the time it was John, took about half the time across the Atlantic as it did in a boat yeah, but compared to what we are used to oh yeah you're this. It was Surely, but, and apparently after reading more about the hindenburg, it's not as a guest ship troubles were the same way. We're gonna get there when we get there like we're, heading we're trying to get there then. But you never know what's gonna happen, but that's why they

then the leisure class? That's right! It fell forward in northern track across the ocean, eventually crossed into North America over the coast of Newfoundland and arrived in late cursed, New Jersey about twelve hours, late and Germans. There always lay near their famous for and basically arrive there. The naval air station in because of poor weather the captain- and commanding officer on the ground and said you know at the weather is not so great. Let's wait a little bit because I can fly around forever and those things right, and he said I There is nicely Cisco, five of that teller ruin to look around and look at all those old Tommy Bathing suit. I gladly thereafter the ankles and water by six p M conditions had improved and at six twelve ISA it's an unsuitable for landing, reckon the landing now about seven or eight. He

we pulled the limp and was a bit of a dodgy approach, but he eventually me now got it down toward the ground Pre Noah skilfully, which has will see is not as easy as you think you know now. Is it it's not in practice now, the landing lines, and then things went south, like really bats. Near rose filled with hydrogen, which is the lightest element right yeah and it also probably the most flammable one of em. Yes, inflamed There was a big error at the time, a lot of glimpse had called on fire. This is not the first accident and

those in people testified afterward cause. Not everyone died will get to the numbers here at the end of the story, but those testimony that it appears as if gas was pushing against the cover. Maybe it escaped from a gas. So, at seven, twenty five, the first visible flames appeared and did varies but Sweden to say that the first Windsor, either at the top of the hall afforded the vertical fin or between the rear port engine and the port fin, and they described as a mushroom? shaped flower in it pretty much engulf. The two like right away and it able to remain study for a little while, like people could start jumping out at this point, will those are the people who died correct? Now, that's what I always heard. That's. What I have heard is that the people who stayed in the the gondola lived in the people who jumped were the ones that died because the flames, because hydrogen is light, they were burning

word was here. Basically, it was all depending on where you were a few are close to a means of exit generally survived. If your deep inside the ship. Can the power room along the keel or in the smoking room. Smoking Herman had its first. Wasn't all smoking big, blissful hydrogen, oh yeah yeah and does not give yet they headed, apparently a double air locked door. One electric lighter and You will stop smoke once you put it out before you left and I M so I said it and smoking room and be deck you're big trouble, if you were there the nine men closest to the front of the ship. You definitely didn't survive, yeah,

out of the ninety seven people on board sixty to survive. I think, when you see the footage, meaning watch it on Youtube, it looks like how the work at anyone survive. It gives a ghost means fully. And in less than a minute and on the ground, there went up fast, but sixty did its arrival. Thirteen of the thirty six passengers and twenty two of the sixty one crew- and there still two guys alive today- May logic miles of two years ago, but they like to talk about it. I can imagine We need an attic experience about Name Verna, Varner, France and Bernard Donor, the tavern and no one was a little cabin boy and one was a passenger with his family and they were contacted for like that. You know the ceremony and getting on call an anniversary. I guess memorial did. We ever ran over three year. It sounds like a party, but they said now we're not coming. We don't want to talk about here. So it's been a while,

Fanny. Mr, exactly what happened, I found a an article in the: U K, independent from two thousand thirteen about a study from that year. That found they said they ve figured it out. They built like scale models of the Hindenburg, which was like two and a half built along by the way near the rebuilding scale, models that were like, like sixty feet, long say a good sized ones and they tried to Burma because there is a rumor it was sabotage reign of everybody hated the Nazis. Even then, and they tribe, asked all manner stuff what they finally figured out was that we will have those from being in that stormy weather that exterior the envelope of the blimp became electrified and when the ground crew ran up and grabbed the cables they completed, the current from the blow to the ground, which caused a spark which actually ignited a hydrogen leak.

Fire cosmic, even the glass pushing out new year, one thing they say, definitely isn't which they long thought it was was the actual fabric was like painted in the swamp mobile stuff. Right and that's not true, owes the standard fabric. Ok, it was just big balloon, Philip, hydrogen and then causes. I work here so when they happen to be the future of glimpse. Words is pretty much like that, four glimpse that wasn't the immediate end, but as far as like commercial blimp travel, that's tough for an industry to get or so it kind of fell by the wayside, although they did continue on in a couple of forms up until the sixties, the? U S, government, especially the navy. Team glimpse one of them that I think that I guess the air force our nose, the Navy, but one of them

It is of the U S: military use glimpse as giant aircraft carriers of the air, not not the sea, the air which is pretty awesome, and apparently they had I'm. So you could connect like a light plain till, what's called like a trapeze mechanism, coming out of the bottom of the black Sea as like hook your plane, I climb up and say: hey guys were going or you can take off from there to blood yes and take off you to drop. I think he just released the hook from the trap is a sort of freedom nine. You discover often at a distance ago, thanks for the ride, lady really weird and they had even bigger. And they were never realized because the Navy scrap the programme and I think nineteen sixty two

have like a landing strip on top of the blimp, so you could have just like planes take off and land and then be stored like in the blimp. It would have been pretty awesome, well, cargo, airships or the wave of the future. Perhaps I will see you so, but there was the the military was involved in glimpse for most of the first half of the twentieth century. Then our friends, a good year, came up with a blimp that has really serve them. Well, like they were making plans for the military, and then they started using them for commercial purposes, and nobody knows about good year. Thanks to those people,

yeah they're, gonna figure- and here, of course, is can't talk about glimpse locked up, a ton of buzz marketing for good you're, the inner that's where they make your name. In fact, my inlaws almost rode on the one they started Akron because its- whether from a nay, I think he was gonna put in a bid on. I am like an auction bid to win a trip need, and I think it never happened. The traveller happen. I think he either lost the bill. Ask him, but I don't think they rode on the black. Ok, as can save the trip, never happen that this is only the good you're gonna know no, they area they like the Germans, so they there's three good. Your boots actually there's one and, I believe, sexist, there's one California, as one in Ohio River Florida, For you know, higher is what it is. I am sorry the spirit of good year, the Spirit of America, the Spirit of innovation and chuck about the sign. This.

Comes out Robin Roberts. The tv personality is going to be christening the newest member, the fleet, the wing foot, one nice sitting. I have for you because there's a lot of sporting events sure, and you can't watch of exporting, that without hearing the words aerial courage provided a good year and as shots man pretty great, they really are the we haven't been around forever. It is, I think, an orange ball in Miami where the first one was broadcast and like the sixties, maybe something like that and it changed. The air while it, I'm certainly gives them a lot of press and saves fallen about saves money haven't seen a balance sheet, but its they want to spend money on that thirty second spot. They still do to tie into the web, but it's great advertising for them. They also were good sports in a movie called black son

seriously, though, of course I never saw but apparently seventies, they provide. Adam. They provided some of the footage for the movie, dumb, but their glimpse be used endless their name be used even like it wasn't like the good wire blimp, be another info the change to the earth they use good year, which made the whole thing even more terrifying, last year they wanted to kill the very won. The Superbowl now supply right with a blip right. That's the dark. Which is weird there was written by the Cairo silences lambs. Oh yeah he's a good writer fevered news books. He used the bureaucratic. Oh now at another. Now I ever read any signs. He does very good research interesting. I

anyway, so good, you're, good you're in a military after the Hindenburg, throws the two cases a blunt but, like you said, there is potentially a future for glimpse which will talk about, but first a subway. How blends work in general after these messages hello step, you should know listeners. Do you want a new year's resolution? That's easy to keep yes resolve to help. Put to your identity and personal info with lifelike identity theft, protection, lifelong alert, you to potential threats to or identity and they see more than what you can see by just monitoring your own credit like your info on the dark web and that's a big deal yeah, and if you, the problem. Lifelike? U S based restoration specialists, no, the steps it take to help resolve your case after all,

one in five identity theft, victims who had accounts open in their names discovered their theft through bank or credit card company, and, of course no one can prevent all identity theft or monitor all transactions at all businesses, but lifelike is the new year's resolution does not only easy to keep it'll help. You protect what you ve worked so hard for get lifelike for up to twenty five percent off your first year, gonna lifelike, dot, com, slash stuff, that's lifelike, dot, com, slashed stuff for up to twenty five percent off you wanna have limps work buddy. I do the pretty simple there. This is a delight to learn, is. It was like. I thought there would be just that little to it, and that's really gonna case right here. There's not like. Oh here's, where it gets really hard right. There, like a pontoon both of the sky yeah, the most

Get a thing on the web is probably the gyroscope. It came round the front of practice on the football stadium. You up, I think you're right So what The anatomy of the lamp you have you mention the envelope earlier. That is the thing that you're looking at that is geared egg cigar shaped balloon gets filled nowadays with helium. Is that shape because of aerodynamics, of course, and they are super lightweight and super strong, like your sand, neoprene to ply neoprene polyester generally, as, though, those Meda there's, a company called the eye Elsie Dover Corporation. They make a lot of skins and they use the same material that they make space suits out for NASA for blind to get enough for Neil Armstrong, buddy good enough for my blimp. This is like it all about. Oh hi, o this one I was here I yell

let those good you none. I knew that very Emma. I The envelopes they hold depends on the lamps for all of these statistics, of course, but between sixty thousand two hundred and fifty thousand cubic feet of helium, and it's not super. The pressures really low inside point zero, seven pounds per square inch. So that's why, if you shot of lamp, it wouldn't like fall now just leak very slowly and he just landed and patch it up. I guess very slowly yet night in any, for the british minister. Defence fired hundreds of bullets into an airship just for

You will notice you if it would could be shot down in battle. Basically Ergot Anna. It took many hours to deflate and land so cool and they don't even deflate em. They just leave him that way so that their natural structure will not natural, but their original structure prevents them from being shot down at one big benefit, because I was wondering about those like you just providing a target for every teenager, with a gun in any country that youth hover, blimp overture. Now I understand, but secondly, we'll see. It also has to do with the dynamics of the flight of hovering in the atmosphere. See get the anvil up at the anvil of also has something called knows combatants yet, which is basically like us support structure for the nose, the front of it yet just a very, very tip, and it keeps the the the group with a glimpse front from being matched in as it moves forward, which is pretty smart ya, think

both the nose communism, just a very tough in an abandoned or like the fingers that distribute the stress over the front of the count. Gotcha. Okay, so they're, like the young, the the structure that comes out of this right and then also on the nose is the morning hook cause you got a hook, a wimp up to something yeah skull, spindle there and Sky Lula, we'll under the tale rudder and basically how it says it is tied down very simple, just like a boy, so there's the here's where it gets a little craft year like Nineteenth century crafty, bits, yell, neat nano after there's something called Our nets right- it is a basically air bladders that are located within the envelope yeah and you inflate or deflate them,

depending on whether you want the blimp to go up or down. If you wanted to go up, you deflate these balance. You want to go down, you invite and the reason that works is because you're inflating. I knew your inflaming. These balance with air and helium, which blitz fly using now is lighter than air. So more air means the glimpse heavier, so it goes down. Lesser means is lighter suckers up yet

easy. It sort of like how a submarine operates and there's one in the four and one of the act, so that tell you control your tram. You can just knows it up or knows it down filling upper deflating. That's the pitch axis. The trade or trim. Ok well, the trim is the level must allocate here and the axis where the nose in the back go up and down. That's the trim, access or another, the Texas right. No one can see you not an agreement. Shook then there's the category curtain, and the suspension cables returning gifted coronary curtain really understood the suspension cables. Just fine it's on the on the inside about thirty percent off Zennor and it basically, if you look it sort of, looks like the where you attach the basket to the hot air balloon they are.

In others, a number of these lines that and down and all meet at a single point near gondola right. That's what they're attach the gun deluded blimp using right yet so, basically, if, if you, if the blimp envelope was it it would sort of look like a hot air balloon. It would have these lines that run up from the gondola a basket of up to the top, so they would be like. The vertical lines yet laser the Horizontal y yeah. Ok, I understand exact Amanda Then you get there really technical stuff. The flight control surfaces, so everything we ve just described, is basically balloons and then the structure that gives the balloon its shape Breyer and then the flight control services are basically a rudder and elevators, and there the things that you can control to make the balloon.

Till upward or side decide, that's pretty much it the others that one rudder on the top and bottom in that controls yuri YA, and you do it with little looking to captain cherries battle, will foot petals, Sucker clutch battle, you'd put an push and on the bottom varied by. Back of the rudder. There's something called a boost tab and that's just a little additional sectioned off piece of the rudder. That's also controllable signal, many rudder and it assists with the rudder. I think, to make an even tighter turn got into. He imagined the smaller rudder as part of the main rudder. Just to give you the extra boost I guess we need to turn then there's a two elevators and they If you are sitting here, will captain share. Imagine a car steering wheel placed vertically, like by your side in this just a wheel that? U turn up in turn down, is really very It sounds like the wizard of OZ, Daytona.

Like all of machines, messing with tears out their looks very steam funky. When you look at it as EAST Europe and without wheel and that's pretty much it follow. Different engines are well yeah. I mean this forest like driving this puppy near the fire control. Yet this is worth separated from hot air balloons. Don't forget, just another hundred the while you're the engines, but also the flight control services. But the engines are turbo. Prop engines right, there's twin ones, some answers to I say the gondola at the rear and they're pretty cool because they fulfil the thing forward, but very cleverly is also something called air scoops that are basically these funnels. That face the back of the turboprops and they catch the vented air out of the products and they use those to inflate the ballot.

Yeah, let's go prop wash zeal. The lingo I've learned, the good stuff in the engines are just six cylinder engines like. I said that you don't need a ton of power to power these things and you can Oh it about thirty two. Seventy this is miles per hour, not not to have a that in. Seventy is cruising apparently like thirty to fifty is where you want to be give this a deadly calculations, so one of the one of the great advantages glimpse have, which is the reason why even talking about the singers anybody's talking about still making glimpse as if they can stay aloft four days weeks, even gear, which gives them a huge advantage over airplanes, have to stop every fuel and savary fuel, but going seventy miles per hour Chuck a blimp nonstop at that rate could travel the circumference of the,

around the equator in fourteen days. My then a few which I think is not very hard now they I'm at thirty nights. The sky ship, which is just one example, concerns about eight gallons of fuel per hour. So apparently, during an entire week of operations, it consumes less fuel than seven sixty seven commercial jet uses to move away from the gate While its super green, he asked in a cool. You can understand why cargo companies are looking at him to you and that's. It runs on F gas, of course, not just regular old gas. It didn't pull up to a gas station like your car, because I think our gas is still leaded or a lot of it is and that's the death threats not thy cream. Yet true, but you're not burn image of it

so see what else is. Third, the vows you gotta be able by air in and out. They also want to be able the air in and out of the ambulance itself in case things become too pressurized. You'll want pop, that's true. So you get your airbags for the for the bladders inside. Air underneath to two upright you in the back you're helium valve, and you can either vent it at any time to do this. Much because you should have it pretty like the pressure set, but is does happen. You can either manually do her set to automatically release and if you look at the good, your blanket than the why of year. Well, it'll just looks a little

Gas cap leisurely know you're blimp man. Well, I went to the good. Your site is awesome like there's all sorts of animated Jeffson or is it gifts and ever could, I say, give graphic interface yeah, but there is a correct, wedged, onawandah. Well, the guy who created, It says Gary pronounces Jeff boys characters original works. I disagree with him. More guidelines give the good year, blimp gondola, which where we are now is twenty two point: seven five feet long aluminum unwell did steal, frame and

that's where everyone rides, depending on your lap. It's gonna hold up to well with depends on how big the blinkers, but usually don't you blimp, with more than twelve passengers who so here and it's not even necessarily passengers. A gondola can also be the place where it holds all of these surveillance equipment to jeer, depending on what use for or it can also be. The method cargo hold yet you ve got your communications up there. Your flight surface controls any nab equipment, propeller controls, that's where all the there there's not much else to it, besides with which, together in a gondola yeah, what's funny is some. I always thought glimpse were basically like how you view the blimp in the air, and it takes often and that's it, but it's it's at least with good year. It's kind of like gum, got helicopter parents almost because when the blue-

When you see the blimp look around, you will also find a ground crew with a bus, eighteen, wheeler and a bunch of vans. Follow it everywhere, because if I guess the things breakdown and apparently the pilot see there s a certified in good. Your pilots also have another training programme, but the pilots, or even its all sort of everyone, is cross trained. It sounds like you to work on the ground or make repairs, and yet the Globe Self contained unit all travel around again and again. Have all NATO chasers right. Oh, are you and you talked about on the end. You know you. If they took off imploded around if the end instead start. That's exactly what you're doing your basically a hot air balloon at that point, You say you lose control of the fight service, controls yeah. Well, I mean if it they call it a free balloon. So it's buoyant and its capital,

Obviously, but if they lose all the power then are you can do is sending decent, because I think I guess the rudders in the elevators are also powered mechanisms. I gotcha notched attached to it. Evil attached to a battle tat through a we'll, never turn. It sounds like it is there in his heart, there goes the comparative roughly operating is about the somewhere. As a helicopter, like we and fly in bad weather, but we try to avoid super bad weather, yeah unemployment. One is now you ought to be about the rose ball in, like seventy degree, whether so coming up we're gonna talk about how blind fly and then also the future glimpse, and if there is such a thing after this new year's resolutions are very, very difficult to keep git

exercise save more money. What about this? We have a resolution that you can really work with stop wasting time going to the post office that right, you stamps dot com instead because they bring all the services of the. U S: postal service, right to your computer, with your small business, sinning invoices. Or packages or an online seller shipping out products stamps that can handle it all with ease yank it. This was simply come. You get five cents off every first class stamp in up to forty percent of priority mail. This right? U S, postage twenty four, seven for any letter, any package, any class anywhere you want to send it! There's no risk and using our promo code, ass white, ass, gay you're, gonna get this offer afore weak trial, plus free postage and a digital scale, and there are no long term commitments or contracts just go to stamp that come click on the microphone off the top of the home page and type in s. Why, as K that stance, I come from a goat s. Why, as K stamps that come

ever go to the post office again so check the the wavelength, five, pretty simple and beautiful elegant You ask me yeah yeah, so you have helium right, which is that uses hydrogen helium slightly heavier than hydrogen, but not that much more. You don't notice a difference. I would guess yeah I mean you get whether use hydrogen we're dummies right it was lighter than at the latest of all the get is of all the elements from what I understand and when hydrogen blew up this hurricane, not hydrogen. What else do we haven't? They survive helium works, and so they started using helium and helium.

Has a lift of lift capacity of point. Seventy pounds per square foot right, which is one point, one kilograms per square metre, which means it can with a pretty decent amount of wait here for just a little bit amount and sister filling these balloons, with hundreds of thousands of cubic feet or cubic metres of these arm of helium We can tons and tons of weight, and I do it by just simple physics, since helium is lighter than air. As long as the helium has enough think power to lift whatever the envelope in the gondola and all the mechanisms way then will rise more than the air. It will rise into. Their gets called positive. Buoyancy

and what you want as a black pilot is neutral buoyancy. So that's why you're gonna control like we talked about your air bladders. To get that thing words once you ve got your cruising altitude. He just want to be at the same level, you here you went down and you want to fill it by blowing Ass India S groups which Philip, your bayonets and the high you get into the atmosphere. The less pressure there is, which means the higher up. You could float conceivably sacred, wanna, make sure you you get their Erin seemed to float away and you chief is negative, or neutral buoyancy, ideas which one and then, when you on the way and you just the opposite, you fill up with even more air and then you make the blimp heavier than the here, inside, can lift and it is slowly comes down to the ground and I mean that's it. That's how wimps rise and fall. Yeah, it is pretty simple and one on the ground they decide to that. Little spent.

Well you ve got your little we'll under the rear, yet a little time, you're to tell it around. Maybe a hanger Anna, that's the life of a blimp than it like. I said they dont inflating deflate these short time in an expense and think that run on helium too. Did we learn that? Yet you know much about that. While we covered it and now the I probably the Mars turbine up his Mars turbine yellows it. But I read a really interesting article n, I think the New republic, I can't remember, I found it on line last night and it's about the helium shortage and why we have a helium shortage and apparently the U S his head a reserve, a strategic helium reserves since nineteen twenty five in a cave in Texas and

Only during the Clinton era, the government said blood must make some money off this or we make our money back off of it. So they pass a law that said, start selling stuff off fear of land management yeah, but only make enough money off of it to recoup wherever put into it over the years, which is like one billion dollars, so they started selling in by setting the price artificially. They created an artificial market, because this is like eighty. Ninety percent of the world's helium reserves cave in Texas. So wherever the b L M was selling it for that's how much the market value was there, but it was artificials, so you had art officially cheap helium flooding the market there, which had a two pronged

fact. One led to these scarcity that were running into now, because they started selling off in a fire, sail the private industry, but the other more positive effect. The head was that it it spurred all this technological innovation, because Maiden nuclear magnetic resonance, the technology behind em are eyes superconductivity molecular analysis uses helium to super cool magnet to turn them into superconductor right. So you need helium for that's all these streets, were using this helium for the Bureau of Land Management to like advanced technology by leaps and bounds, which is one of them. Reasons why we are where we are now, technologically speaking, because the helium now are starting to run out. There's I think,

nine billion cubic feet of helium left in the reserve in Texas, which is about a third of what they had when they started selling it off in the nineties, which should be fine if we just planted end said okay, this is a reserve again, but instead for some reason the government is double down and issued another decreed it. Uruguay management like keep selling stuff. What do I get rid of all of it for no good reason I don't understand why you like me, since in the nineties. Maybe India had always great effects, but now it's like ok, we understand that helium is literally irreplaceable, as the article put it like there's once there's no helium, there's no helium I think I'll, get it anywhere else for manufacturers and we have no technology to recycle. It comes with a reason is, I guess Any private industry has a lot of interest in it and there is good interest to like

using it for em our eyes or pharmaceutical research that, conversely parties well as to think so men, the made in farming sectors, use twenty nine percent of helium worldwide. Well, use the seventeen percent disease helium. The world here party believes equals eight per cent of world wide helium is well. I have a feeling that party boys are gonna, go the way, the dinosaur very soon if they haven't already and half of that is the stoner kid who operates the helium right just talking funny, yeah yeah, so that's it in short, is that these skinny on it, while so that I wonder if there is any other gas they could use for glimpse, I don't know it seems like a giant ways or I wonder if they could and like I do like a hybrid. So it's fuelled by hot air like a balloon

FR. I wouldn't I dont know either well. I guess we are at the future, then in the future and Depending on how you ask the future of airships is either super exciting, an awesome, and when you look at these, they are here sure it's not gonna be funded enough. The really there's not a lot of money being pumped into a while. Government was for a little while this with the Ghana stem war, the department offences that give us new plants. We want these things now, yeah, and all these companies ran in a more like here to glimpse Hoosier Glimpse little will give us the money. The problem this is, the whole programme got scrap because nobody could fulfil the enormous orders. The deity was placing for helium right. Well, that makes sense. And the military's interested because they basically could be. A satellite function, as a saddle idea, I could ten thousand foot satellite every much

there are people down at the Lockheed. Martin has a piece of ninety one that is supercool looking it is a try hall, if you look at it from the front, it looks or like three blips squash together and it has for big. It looks like feed these. This shape cushions their apparently for landing. And these are also called there's on another. In California, from worldwide Arrows Corp called the dragon dream in its different. Looking it sort of looks like a whale shark. Did you see it It's a single! How I guess what I saw a kind of flattened out. It looks like a well short: they they actually submitted designed the dvd, and when the deity scrap the programme, they bought their design back because they want to go commercial like cargo carrier with it, yeah and we're in trouble there, because the dragon died well had a roof collapse in Algeria and they don't know if they have the money to even fix it and then continue while the

have another model, called the emerald. Eight sixty six, that it sounds like they're putting their energy into its supposedly can carry two hundred and fifty times, which is more than twice the cargo payload of cargo. Seven. Seventy seven- twice enemy again. You mention how little fuel it takes the power these things there so it'll take a little while for you to get your package, but the company shipping it isn't going to spend too much money. Ever yet. I still say if it's a military like the uses, a cargo plain, I know you can't shoot a hole in it, but what if you launched the surface to Aramis left it? You know we'd still full of helium its then some like they're so high up there. He can't the fact that we have satellites and drones. It seems to me, like them. Surveillance uses a glimpse, a preposterous, especially considering that we could be using that helium for medical purposes. Instead.

I agree that anything else on boys we're lookin out. I got one other thing. If you are fascinated by the the way glimpse float, I think its call for some reason I did a brain stuff, video about that. You can calculate how many balloons it would take like regular party balloons select yourself into the sky. I made a video about it to go to a brain stuff showed up check it out nice, and if you want to read this article, you can go to house efforts that can't type in how glimpse work in it will bring it up and, I said, has the forts. I think so. Let me the temperate listen to me. This sterilizing attics room without always did show on without legal sterilize. Attics turns out it and that's the thing

and this is from someone who had a personal stake in it flung putting an edit it in my head, as I go, hey guys. Just recently was New Pike S, installation sterilization attics had personal stories share until my mother is recovered heroin at it, and I am grateful just to be alive flow six. She was only an alcoholic, however drug addiction said in fact, my mother brother myself, along with whatever scumbag boyfriend yet at this were constantly on the run from the police. Looking for shelter and searching for food, my father's in upper middle class, blue collar worker You always had a sound home environment when my mother was sent to prison when asked here now delivered my father always had food showering. Clean clothes was never fear for being homeless, father for three years until I finally ran away once I regained check with my mother, my father. Even with this financial support. Instability is never there, even though he was only

You feed away my mother, even while on drugs, always listened and always cared about my thoughts and feelings, and that was what was important as a child. My mother eventually overcame her addictions, cold turkey, because well she could see it was day. Me, and my brother she's been- for eleven years now and as an amazing mother, grandmother to my nephew, believe that seeing the harder side of life maybe appreciate such things. And be more humble and responsible in fearful of what can happen. If I slipped her did not take care of myself I want to be the poster child for children of attics, whatever I do That we are all in control of our own lives, and that is anonymize as Cornelius Jacobs, the seventh corny Jake seven. He said you can read it and said o anonymous anonymous size. It is

some sort of name anonymize around the internet. Now he said, please do just make it something. Also my Cornelius Jacobs, the seventh that's great minutes ago, Piazza been secretly wanting Jerry. Be the Tyler Durden of your part, gas, oil and letting it means like made up by, like we think she's real, but she's. Not ok. Are you real jerry cases? No nope lit answers that Cornelius It gives the seven and you read the Roman numerous correctly check this time go air security. I yet if you want to get in touch with me in check to tell us any story like Cornelius Jacobs, the seventh, please do you can tweak to us it s why, as key part cast, you can join us on Facebook that comes lest he should know. You can send it to me to stuff. I guess that house works that camp and is always go to cool home on the web stuff. You should know Doc
