Airship
An airship is a buoyant aircraft that can be steered and propelled through the air. Unlike aerodynamic aircraft which stay aloft by moving an airfoil through the air in order to produce lift, airships stay aloft primarily by means of a cavity (usually quite large) filled with a gas of lesser density than the surrounding atmosphere.
