Zeppelin NT: Reviving the Airship Industry for a Historic Journey to Japan

The Zeppelin NT, a modern airship, is on a month-long tour from Germany to Japan, marking the 75th anniversary of the first round-the-world Zeppelin flight. Unlike its predecessors, it is smaller, safer, and uses inert helium. The Nippon Airship Corporation of Japan has made the first commercial purchase, believing in its viability. The airship will travel over 10 countries, covering 15,000 kilometers, and is expected to arrive in Tokyo in August.
