Helium balloons

answer Jul 29, 2018 by Hanifa Mammadov

A helium filled balloon; or a balloon filled with any gas lighter than air.

Earth's atmosphere causes a helium balloon to float, thus making it impossible to weigh. On the moon, the lack of atmosphere causes the balloon to sink, allowing it to be weighed. It will only weigh a little bit, but will still be heavier than on earth.
