What membrane holds the lungs to the thoracic wall?

The lung is "held" to the thoracic wall by a vacuum or a "potential" space. The thoracic wall has a thin membrane attached to it called the parietal pleura. The lung also has this membrane attached to it but is called the visceral pleura. The two pleura touch each other and slide against each other but are not attached. There is no space between them in the same way there is no space between the sides of a balloon when you suck out the air. If you are stabbed in the chest, an opening is created and air rushes in the hole. The "potential" space becomes an actual space as the lung collapses (a condition called a pneumothorax).
