Suggested by its mintage, the first hot air balloon took flight in France in 1783. Joseph-Michel and Jacques-Étienne Montgolfier were two paper-manufacturing brothers who launched a 9-meter tall balloon with a fire at the base to heat the air inside. This balloon, made of paper and fabric, carried no passengers, but it flew for a distance of 2 kilometers and was in the air for about 10 minutes, marking the first human-made object to fly. Hot air balloons have since evolved into a popular recreational activity and a symbolic image in many cultural festivities worldwide.
