Early balloon designs. Artwork showing several early balloon designs. The earliest design (top left) is by Francesco Lana de Terzi (1631-1687).

At top centre is the Montgolfier balloon, which undertook the first manned ascent in a hot air balloon in November 1783. At centre right and left are the ascending and descending forms of Andre Garnerinss (1769-1823) parachute, which was attached to a balloon. At centre Jacques Charles (1746-1823) and Nicolas Robert (1758-1820) are inflating their hydrogen balloon before making the first untethered ascent with a gas hydrogen balloon in December 1783. At bottom are wings that were attached to the baskets of balloons flown by Vincenzo Lunardi (1759-1806) and Jean-Pierre Blanchard (1753-1809). Drawings by Joseph Clement published in 1818.
