摘要： A vehicle suitable for use in high-altitude applications use may include a gas impermeable body and a flexible barrier separating the body into multiple sections or compartments. The compartments may include a lift compartment for holding lift gas, such as lighter than air gas, and a ballast compartment for holding a ballast, such as heavier than air gas. A valve may permit passage of the ballast from the ballast compartment to an exterior of the body. The body may have an oblong shape, with fins attached to an exterior back end thereof. The vehicle may have only internal ballast compartments, without including a hopper external to the body.

摘要翻译： 适用于高空应用的车辆可包括不透气体和将本体分成多个部分或隔室的柔性屏障。 隔室可以包括用于保持提升气体的升降室，例如比气体轻，以及用于保持压载物的压载舱，例如比气体重。 阀可以允许镇流器从镇流器隔间通到主体的外部。 身体可以具有长方形形状，翅片附接到其后部后端。 车辆可以仅具有内部压载隔间，而不包括在身体外部的料斗。
