Hyperblimp Motto: “Lighten up!”
Like most words, this phrase can have a few meanings, but let’s keep it short: Hyperblimp LLC produces and develops airborne vehicles, traditionally called “lighter than air,” or “LTA.” Technically, they are “light as air” when filled with helium or “LAA”-another term might be “neutrally buoyant.” This is in contrast to “HTA,” or “heavier than air.” As explained elsewhere, Hyperblimps float rather than fly, saving the huge portion of energy used to create “dynamic lift” in traditional planes.
But we like to apply the term more broadly too: Humans do better when generating light than heat, understanding and thoughtfulness rather than ignorance and hate. Plus there is that all-too-common tendency to take ourselves too seriously.
Thus we encourage people to take themselves a little lighter and bit less seriously-with ourselves for starters!
