No, it's a nice idea though. As the balloon rises the pressure outside it will drop causing the gas inside the balloon to expand until eventually the balloon will pop. Sorry to burst your bubble as it where; I love the idea of space being filled with these multi coloured balloons though :))

have faith it or no longer, a balloon full of Helium floats with the aid of density of the air surrounding it ! The 'rigidity' which you notice as inflicting a balloon to waft upwards is truly led to by making use of the air around the balloon being denser than the mixed density of the balloon and the Helium interior it. This reasons the air above the balloon to be pulled down by making use of gravity and bodily displaces the balloon upwards. ultimately the balloon will attain a sufficient height the place the density of the encircling air precisely suits the density of the balloon and the Helium and the balloon will no longer upward thrust. you could instruct this by making use of attempting to take a balloon full of air to the backside of the deep end of a swimming pool. the version in density between the air interior the balloon and the encircling water is so great which you would be difficult-pressed to get the balloon even some ft down with out guidance from a great weight ! In an environmnent with an environment, yet no gravity, the comparable consequence does not be considered. it truly is with the aid of fact although the density of the air continues to be extra advantageous than the density of the balloon and the Helium, there is no rigidity of gravity to tug the encircling air downwards over the balloon and as a consequence displace the balloon upwards. The balloon could stay anyplace you place it, regardless of what it replace into full of. In an environment with out environment, regardless of whether there is any gravity, the balloon could basically explode. it truly is with the aid of version in inner and exterior rigidity on the balloon. the only ingredient that often stops a balloon from exploding is the rigidity of the ambience exterior it (15lbs/in^2 on the Earth's floor.)

NOT! As the baloon travels upward the atmospheric pressure decrease. The baloon will become larger untill it bursts.

These balloons usually pop due to the change in atmospheric pressure.

No, helium balloons cannot leave the atmosphere

The balloons will get bigger and bigger and eventually blast when they get higher and higher.
This is because the pressure of the (inside) balloons is higher than the outside air.

no, the balloons would pop before they got into space. there are, however millions of popped balloons in the earth oceans, killing fish and aquatic mammals and birds by the thousands.

i may be wrong but i had always thought that when the balloon reaches a certian atmospheric pressure it explodes!

The balloon will burst at about 18,000 feet

no, they would burn up in the atmosphere before they got even close to space
