Description / Comments

From Archimedes' discovery of the principle of buoyancy to the golden age of the great passenger airships to the latest in sport balloons and plans for future airships, this richly illustrated lecture chronicles lighter-than-air flight. Journey with Tom Crouch, senior curator of the Division of Aeronautics at the Smithsonian Institution's National Air and Space Museum, as he brings to life the color and excitement of buoyant flight as he explores the wonders of flight and the beauty of sailing the winds.
