Hot air balloons are the oldest successful human-carrying flight technology, first flown in France in 1783. They rise when the air inside the envelope is heated, becoming lighter than the cooler air outside, and drift with the wind rather than being steered like an aircraft. Modern balloons use propane burners and strong nylon envelopes, and festivals around the world draw huge crowds each year. You can learn more about their history, design and record flights on Wikipedia, from early experiments to today’s spectacular mass ascents.
