Abstract: Vacuum airships fueled by renewable energy would reduce reliance on fossil fuel-based modes of transport, lessen the need for limited and non-renewable lifting gases, and can be achieved using novel manufacturing techniques for ultra-light, discrete lattice material systems.The Discrete Lattice Material Vacuum Airships (DLMVA) system combines novel material science and manufacturing technologies for new modes of mass transportation, resulting in a disruptive approach to reduce national resour…
