- NASA believes that airships have serious potential for scientific research due to their potential ability to remain in the air in a stable position for long periods
- One of the potential uses of the airship is of a floating weather station that captures data about weather and climate change
- By attaching a telescope to an airship located in the stratosphere, the second layer of Earth’s atmosphere above its weather systems, scientists would be able to get high-resolution images, and thus detailed data, about celestial bodies such as stars
