  • Why a Vacuum Balloon Won't Float: Understanding Buoyancy
    No, a balloon filled with a vacuum would not float. For an object to float in a fluid, it needs to be less dense than the fluid. A vacuum has no mass, so it is not less dense than air. In fact, it is the complete absence of matter. Therefore, a balloon filled with a vacuum would be more dense than the air around it and would sink.
