Yes, hot air balloons flew first. Though I don't know the exact details, as the history is so diverse, spread over many years, and even includes the candle lit paper hot air balloons released at parties or festivals. It would take some research on the internet to get the full details.
Balloons float because of the same principal as how ships float: bouyancy. A ship displaces a volume of water. If the ship's weight is less than the volume of water that it displaces, then it will float. Same is true for a balloon. It displaces a volume of air. If the Hydrogen or Helium in the balloon weighs less than the volume of air it displaces, then it will rise.
All stars fuse hydrogen into helium - the slight difference in atomic weight between 4 hydrogen atoms and one helium atom, is given off as radiation.
False. There is no restriction on flying the Canadian national flag at night without illumination. Consider the fact that a large portion of Canada has continuous night for a considerable part of the year. In those isolated climes where it may not be practical to provide artificial illumination, what would we have them do? Of course if it is practical to do, it is not wrong to illuminate it, but the Canadian Heritage Department simply states that "The flag may be flown by night as well as by day."
As it rises, outside air pressure decreases, and the hot air inside expands and fills the balloon. Same thing is true of large helium balloons.
Oops ! No. The statement is going along pretty good until the end.The star actually fuses hydrogen into helium .
no
They made the first powered, controlled flight in a heavier than air vehicle. In Kitty Hawk North Carolina, Wilbur and Orville Wright kept their plane in the air for 12 seconds but they were still recorded as the first people to fly in a powered craft. Many other people had flown before using hot air balloons or gliders but these were not considered true aeroplanes.

Not much. While it's true that meteorologists do use balloons to send up weather probes, they tend to use gas balloons instead. It's simpler, cheaper and works better in their conditions.
Yes it is true. All isotopes differ in the number of neutrons only.
True
True. Jupiter is consisted of mainly hydrogen and helium. 90% hydrogen, 8% helium and 2% other gases
More mass is converted to energy in a fusion reaction than in a chemical reaction, such as that found in a fuel cell. - APEX
Yes, it is true.
