Los globos aerostáticos

The video explains the physics behind hot air balloon flight, focusing on how warm air rises in a cold environment due to its lower density. Burners heat the air inside the balloon, creating lift, or thrust, which must exceed the balloon's weight to rise. Pilots maintain altitude by managing the burners, as hot air cools and descends through convection. Altitude and direction are controlled by adjusting the air temperature and using winds.

How does the pilot control the altitude of the hot air balloon?

What role do winds play in the flight of a hot air balloon?
