Graphene Balloon/Blimp
Post Body
I was wondering if you could make a balloon out of graphene?
ie: Graphene's really strong and light, so what if you were to make a giant graphene shell that was completely evacuated on the interior? It would be the perfect balloon. I don't think that air would get through (the delocalized bonds repelling air molecules like N2?) Any problems with this idea?
