STS-111 will be developed into a cheap, flexible aircraft that can be deployed for example, monitoring data on a medium height and medium periods.
Airship is foldable and can be transported in a container to the ascension seat. This is not a rigid construction, but a series of containers connected to each other.
The first is helium gas used to lift the ship. In other containers kept the gas that drives the internal combustion engine, placed at the bottom of the first section.
The advantage of this flexible design is that the whole airship does not need to become a windbreak and is influenced by air currents direction. For the crosswind turns the rear sections and ports in the lee of the front.
Airship was developed by German TAO-Technologies but built by Sans Wire Corp. in Florida. At the end of the year to get the demonstration flights in Europe for the first time.
STS-111 is 35 meters long (111 feet) and 3.5 meters in diameter.
It is considered as a prototype, next year it is envisaged that a double-long airship will be built.

The point is that the flexible air-ships will be offered as an alternative to the larger airship developed surveillance data at altitudes around 5000 meters. These airships are sensitive to drift and the position needs to be corrected with the energy-guzzling engines. Upon storage in the soil need these ships hangar-sized buildings.
