Balon na vrući zrak

Balon na topli vazduh

Balon na topli zrak izumili su Joseph Michel i Jacques Étienne Montgolfier u Francuskoj 1783. godine.

Prvi uspješan let u slobodnom balonu ostvarili su Jean-François Pilâtre de Rozier i Marquis d'Arlandes 21. novembra 1783. godine.

Prvi ženski aeronaut bila je Marie Elisabeth Thible, francuska operna pjevačica koja se 4. jula 1784. uzdigla u Montgolfierovom balonu iznad Lyona.

Baloni na topli zrak i danas se uobičajeno koriste kao slobodni baloni, dakle, baloni koji nemaju neposredno upravljanje smjerom leta, već smjer određuje vjetar.
