No, the Moon has no atmosphere. The hot air does not have the colder air to be lighter than! Such a balloon would work on Mars or some moons of the larger planets which have some kind of an atmosphere.

Why do hot air balloons work?

Hot air balloons work by heating the air inside the balloon with a burner, which makes the air less dense and causes the balloon to rise. This is because the hot air inside the balloon is lighter than the cooler air outside, creating a buoyant force that lifts the balloon. By controlling the temperature of the air inside the balloon, the pilot can control the altitude of the balloon.


Why does a hot air balloon need a burner to work?

To keep it hot you. The REASON they use a 'Burner' in a Hot Air Balloon is to 'heat the Air, to 'fill' the Balloon, so it will 'rise'... The only other way to get the air Hot enough to fill the Balloon, would be to make the 'Basket' MUCH, MUCH Larger, and fill it with Liberals, and just let them talk. BUT, I don't think the Balloon would ever get off the ground, because, the BULLCRAP would counteract the Hot Air, and they would cancel each other out...


What will happen to a gas balloon if you put it on the moon?

A gas balloon would likely expand and rupture on the moon due to the lack of atmosphere and low pressure. The lack of buoyant force and the extreme conditions would cause the gas inside the balloon to rapidly expand, leading to its failure.


Why does a hot air balloon need flame in order to take off?

A hot air balloon needs a flame to heat the air inside the balloon, making it less dense than the surrounding air. This temperature difference creates lift, allowing the balloon to float upwards. Without the flame, the air inside the balloon would cool down and the balloon would descend.


What would happen to an air up balloon if you take it up on a high mountain?

The balloon would get larger as the air pressure outside it dropped. At some height, the balloon would get large enough to burst.

Can a hot air balloon float up to the moon?

No, because the atmosphere would pop the balloon.


Will a balloon that is popped on the moon make a sound?

There is no air on the moon, so the vibrations from the balloon popping have no medium to excite, so there will be no sound.

How can you weigh air in a balloon?

To weigh air in a balloon, you would first need to weigh the balloon when it is empty. Next, fill the balloon with air and weigh it again. The difference in the weights would give you an approximation of the weight of the air in the balloon. However, this method would not provide an accurate measurement of the weight of the air due to factors like the weight of the balloon material and the presence of air inside the balloon.


Would a hot air balloon pilot heat or cool the air in the balloon to make it rise?

He would heat it.
