- How big would a bucky ball have to be to obtain lift?
-
- Would the upper limit of a bucky ball be due to gravity
- or other forces causing deformation of the sphere?
-
- What could you fill them with ? Or could a bucky structure
- be built that can handle a vaccum to obtain lift?
-
- Thanks,
- Larry
