- Archimedes principle [r]: Add brief definition or description
- Balloon (aircraft) [r]: Lighter-than-air craft that remains aloft due to its buoyancy, and without a propulsion system, lifted by inflation of one or more containers with a gas lighter than air or with heated air. [e]

- Density (chemistry) [r]: A measure of the mass per unit volume of a gas, liquid or solid. [e]
- Gravitation [r]: The tendency of objects with mass to accelerate toward each other. [e]
- Hot air balloon [r]: Buoyant aircraft which uses a nonporous envelope of thin material that is filled with heated air capable of lifting a suspended payload into the atmosphere. [e]
- Hydrometer [r]: An instrument typically used to measure the specific gravity (SG) (or relative density) of liquids; that is, the ratio of the density of the liquid to the density of water with both at the same temperature. [e]
- Ship [r]: Vessel larger than a boat for transporting people, goods, or defence by sea, and capable of crossing open waters. [e]
- Submarine [r]: A ship or boat that can travel underwater [e]
- Thermal airship [r]: Airship that generates its lift via the difference in density due to a temperature differential between the gas inside its envelope and the ambient air. [e]
- Zeppelin NT [r]: Class of semi-rigid airships being manufactured since the 1990s by the German company Zeppelin Luftschifftechnik GmbH (ZLT) in Friedrichshafen, Germany. [e]
