Today we decided to maybe start a little bit smaller. So if you look at pictures from our Day 1 you will see that our house is pretty large. Also if you were to lift it up you would see it is also heavy. So we needed to test our 'balloons making house lift' theory on something smaller. We made a small house, about an eighth of the weight. Then we filled up some balloons with helium and tied them to the house one at a time. We thought that with maybe ten balloons the house would lift off of the ground. We were wrong. We tied all thirty balloons on and nothing happened. Well, actually, something did happen. The weight of the house dropped from 170 grams with no balloons to 120 with thirty balloons. After some math we figured it would take 72 balloons to lift the small house off the table. And what about the big house you ask? 572 balloons. Yeah, that's a lot of balloons. So I guess today our small house got promoted to our big house.
