Venus Airships / by Brad Guth

Being a little hot, buoyant and having 10% less gravity is actually a
darn good thing if you were a Venusian airship, even if limited as to
an oven-wrap or KetaSpire PEEK polyetheretherketone and fiber
reinforced balloon. Such fiber reinforced composites do exist,
although an outer skin of something in basic titanium shouldn’t be
excluded for this rigid airship configuration.

And, pray tell Brad, where would the above ship be manufactured ? On the
surface of Venus, you say? I don't think so. Oh, I see ... you'd build it
on Mars and then have the Acme Intergalactic Airship Towing Company move it
to Venus and insert it into the proper orbit.
Good plan, Brad. Keep up the fine work.
Ed Conrad wants to talk to you .... something about an ossified brain ...
