“A dirigible, or airship, has the long range needed to cover a large area of the Arctic Ocean.”

“Eight teams piloted their dirigibles, while a crowd of spectators cheered them on.”

“In 1908 the English novelist H. G. Wells could imagine an armada of German dirigibles crossing the Atlantic to devastate New York City.”

“Planners had hoped to build the airship at the world's largest hangar, which was erected by the CargoLifter corporation 25 miles south of Berlin to house freight dirigibles.”
