Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book unfolds the history of man's attempts to master the skies, culminating in the invention of the dirigible balloon. From crude beginnings, the author traces the evolution of this lighter-than-air craft, detailing the contributions of pioneering minds like Meusnier, Giffard, and Zeppelin. The book explores the scientific principles underlying the dirigible's operation, particularly the intricate balance between buoyancy, weight distribution, and aerodynamic forces. Detailed accounts of early models, such as the Lebaudy and La Patrie, illuminate the design challenges and gradual refinements that led to the development of increasingly efficient and stable airships. Beyond technical aspects, the book delves into the strategic significance of dirigibles in military operations, examining their potential for reconnaissance and bombing. It also considers the limitations and drawbacks encountered in their use, contributing to a well-rounded understanding of the dirigible's role in the history of aviation. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. N° de réf. du vendeur 9781334271120_0
