Zeppelins

Zeppelins are large, elongated aircraft filled with a lighter-than-air gas, such as hydrogen or helium, which provides buoyancy. They have a rigid metal framework covered with fabric, housing the passenger or cargo compartments inside. Zeppelins are propelled by engines that turn propellers, allowing them to navigate through the air. Historically, they were used for passenger travel, military reconnaissance, and advertising in the early 20th century. Modern airships, similar in design but more efficient and safe, are occasionally used for tourism, surveillance, or promotional purposes. They offer a slow, panoramic flight experience, emphasizing stability and capacity over speed.
