BUBBLES AND BALLOONS

The year i77b Ia famous for two
things the birthday of the United
States and the discovery by Caven-
dish of hydrogen gas.
The latter event was in a sense
the birthday of aerial navigation as
well. because Cayendish proved
hydrogen was lighter than air and
inspired series of events resulting
IN the famous flights of the Mont
golfer Brothers In 1888
An early eNperimenter with
hydrogen gas was T1berious
Cavallo. an Italian philosopher
living IN England In 1852 he
published enthusiastic accounts OF
his work. relating how he had
filled ordinary soap bubbles with
Cavendish's ainflammable air" and
watched them float upward and
out of sight.
Reading these fascinating ae-
counts, Joseph and Etienne Mont
paper manufacturer. laid plans for
balloon of paper. Their first at
tempts failed because the hydrogen
escaped through the porous paper
sacks as fast as they tried to in
flate them
After many trials. the Montgol-
fiers built up paper balloon Of
700 cubic feet capacity and tried
out new kind OF gas They found
that by burning damp straw and
wool under the balloons open
mouth II would actually leave the
ground.
Oddly enough. they thought IL
was The leyity OF the smoke that
lifted the balloon. instead of the
light, hot air that really gave IT
buoyanoy On June 5, 1888. this
balloon reached an altitude Of 1000
feet
Their first man carrying balloon
rose 5000 feet on Sovem Der u
that year. carrying aloft two dar-
ing Frenehmen. DE Rollers and
D'Arlandes. for % minutes.
