At around 1:20 one of the engineers starts talking about pressurized helium bags and how that’s what makes it all work. Not understanding a bit of it.
I get that helium is lighter than air, but how the hell are pressurized bags of helium (assumedly heavier than air in that state) going to help this air cargo ship move around?

Compress the helium to control its levitation… to descend.
to float, go to the grotto, or expand the helium.
