Is it possible to build a flying machine that can stay up in the air for five-years? If so who will be able to fly it; that is one important question - a prison in the sky, taken for a ride on a perpetual flying machine in the present period.
Would you spend 5-years up in the clouds and after you were done would you really wish to get back on the ground? It has been stated by the Online Think Tank that the craft could convert water vapor into hydrogen and oxygen, by way of separation, perhaps using a vibrational frequency scheme.
The Hydrogen could then re-fill the balloon as it slowly leaked out.
The vibrational frequency could also excite the hydrogen atoms to heat them up allowing the balloon to rise.
Solar powered back up could help the system and power up your Direct TV, satellite internet and other accommodations.
But what would you eat? Well you might try a strategy of Fishing for birds or dragging a very line for fish into the sea and hoist up some sushi? But realize you probably could not take five years worth of rations, water and etc.
You would have to collect it as you go.
Water could be collected by way of condensation and clouds, the water would be used to drink and separate for Hydrogen in the balloon and for hydrogen powered motor to propel you.
Your floating house would not pollute at all.
Is it possible? Yes, I believe it is, become one with the sky.
