    Abstract: A lighter-than-air craft including an envelope. A mixture of helium and hydrogen disposed within the envelope. The mixture having a ratio of helium to hydrogen such that the mixture is nonflammable during operating conditions for the lighter-than-air craft. The mixture provides buoyancy for the lighter-than-air craft. A hydrogen fuel cell fluidically coupled with the mixture and configured to utilize the mixture to generate electricity. A propulsion system is coupled to the envelope, and the propulsion system is configured to provide propulsion for the lighter-than-air craft. The propulsion system is electrically coupled with the hydrogen fuel cell and receives electricity generated by the hydrogen fuel cell. The propulsion system is configured to utilize the electricity in providing the propulsion to the lighter-than-air craft.

    Abstract: A lighter-than-air airship has an exoskeleton constructed of spokes and hubs to create a set of connected hexagrams comprised of isosceles triangles wherein the spokes flex and vary in length to produce the slope of said airship's surface. In one embodiment, the exoskeleton connects to a nose cone that includes a cockpit cabin for controlling the airship's operation from a single location that can be physically separated from the exoskeleton in response to catastrophic events and for autonomous and/or remotely piloted operation. An improved means is also provided for landing and unloading cargo, and through use of unmanned aerial vehicles in another embodiment, the airship is configured for remote pickup, transport, delivery and return of payloads such as packages. In yet another embodiment, the airship provides a communications platform for beam form transmission and satellite signal relay, including in combination with the foregoing disclosed attributes.
