so I guess it needs to be like 1/4th the thickness of the latex in a balloon (diamond is 4x the density). Vacuum gives you a bit more lift than helium but not that much. Yeah, seems pretty thin.
- db48x 2y agoYea, a bit of artistic license on the author’s part. You could make things quite light though.
