ANIMALS IN THE AIR

One day  in 1777 Josefh Montgolfier was relaxing in front  of the fire with his laundry drying nearby.after a wrhile he noticed that one of his shirts had  started to  float upwarda.the toung man was  curious abot what  was happening so  he  thew some  small  pieces of paper  into  the   fireplace  to see  it  the same thing happened to them.when he saw  them .when he saw  them coming out of  the chimney he came the conclusion that smoke had the   power to lift things up and carry  them through the air.Joseph loved science and wanted to become an  inventor  so he started thying to  think of a craft that would be able to  capture smoke and  lift people  off  the ground.Alond  with his brother  Jacques he  began perfoming experiments on something that later became the first hot-air balloon.
The  Montgofier brothers quickly realised that it was heat and not smoke that had the power to lift things.On 19th September 1783 they presented their first  hot-air ballon which was made from paper and  clot .they burned  some staw underneath it and the heat helped the  ballon  to float.As this was its  first  trip the Montgolfier  brothers were  too nervous to go up in the ballon  themselves.So instead  they put a sheep a duck and a chicken in  the basket that hung below the  balloon for the two-mile journey.
The new  invention was a great success and the animals landed safe and   sound.A  huge crowd including some  members of the French Royal Family  gathered  to watch the  ballon  floathing high in the sky.Shottly afterwards the brothers asked the king for  permission  to send men up the ballon.the king agreed and the  first flight consisting of human passengers took place in ПАРИЖ  on    21ST november 1783    with great success .the balloon  reached heights of around  150 metres as  it floated aver the париж rooftops starting a long a long tradition of hot-air  ballooning.
