Air Balloons Flying
What were the air balloons in the american civil war used for?
I tried googling but i found results of them being used for spying, dropping bombs, flying soldiers into battle. What were they really used for? I can't find an accurate one. This is for a civil war project where i have to make a 3d visual so I need to know what the air ballon's purpose. Thanks so much! 
Also, did they make a big impact on the war? And were they useful in the war?
They were used for observation of enemy troop dispositions.
Their impact was minimal; the time taken to get them into the air and their obvious visibility meant it was hard to deploy them effectively, and they were vulnerable to artillery fire and, as they had to be moored in position to prevent them drifting off in the wind they weren't very mobile.There were also problems in transmitting the information gained to ground level and then along the chain of command to someone who could make use of it - by which time, of course, the intelligence gathered could well be out of date.

Low Flying Hot Air Balloons
Why does Fire makes Hot Air Balloons Fly?
I know, it gets 'hot'...
But, explain to me how come the balloon fly.
Thank you!
Hot air has a lower density than cold air at the same altitude. With lower density, the balloon is displaced upward by the cooler air around it. It is the same principle by which wood floats on water.

So you wanna go to space in a hot air ballon huh? Future Darwin Award winner! I would get all technical but im sure someoneelse will explain.
Linnea, you are very lucky to be going to Stockholm! I lived there for an entire summer and it is one of the most beautiful (and super clean) places I have ever been. While I was there, I delighted in the pastries – they are very big on a pistachio cream, so don’t miss out. You will hopefully see many hot air balloons flying overhead every afternoon – we were told that they are one of the few cities in the world allowed to fly hot air balloons directly over buildings. The Vasa Museum and Tivoli Gruna Lund (Sweden’s oldest amusement park) were also wonderful. Hopefully, you can catch the changing of the guard as well. Shopping there is great, and just walking around even better. Public transportation is excellent. Have a terrific time – I am jealous!
