Hindenburg

Minutes later Hindenburg was in sunshine out over the coast. After a long loop she was deciding whether to turn again when a radio message from NEL announced “Thunderstorm moving out” and at 5:00 pm the Lakehurst’ steam whistle called the ground crew back to the station in confident expectation of landing. However, again, all did not run smoothly. Several messages were exchanged and a fresh cloudburst soaked the already dampened ground-crew who had tried to take shelter around the landing mast. At

The Hindenburg disaster happened almost 80 years ago. The Hindenburg was a German built zeppelin. The ship seen its first flight on March 4,1936. The ship seen its last flight on May 6, 1937. The Hindenburg had an overall of 63 flights its final was terrifying. The Hindenburg was headed into the Naval Air Station in New Jersey on May 6, 1937. The Crew and Passengers thought the landing was going to be a success but they thought wrong. The Hindenburg was having a Hydrogen leakage which is very bad

1. The Hindenburg was destroyed in 32 seconds by one main cause. The extreme amount of hydrogen on board. Though there were other factors, this was really the central problem. To be more specific, a static spark ignited hydrogen that was leaking in the Zeppelin, therefore causing the disaster we know today. If you can accept that the Zeppelin was not sabotaged, then the reason for the hydrogen leak is one of the biggest causes for speculation. According to Hugo Eckener, the president of the Zeppelin

that is commonly referred to as Hindenburg Park by local German Americans (Granata). This portion of the Crescenta Valley Park used to be owned by the German American league and was named Hindenburg Park; eventually, the land was bought by the Los Angeles County and was incorporated into Crescenta Valley Park (Granata). In 1992 the Tricentennial Foundation which is a German American foundation came in agreement with the county to name that portion of the park Hindenburg Park (Granata). In 2016 a sign

difficulties to handle it for the industrial use. Due to it lightest it is stored under pressure as a liquid hydrogen. It has a fast burning rate as compared to the other fuels so any hot spots or sources of ignition should be avoided. May 6, 1937 Hindenburg tragedy, report from the intelligence suggested a static friction between the metal (duralumin) and the fabric was the cause of the tragedy. This means hydrogen needs to handle very carefully. In early 1870’s many researcher’s tried to use some

Not only that as a passenger you would be able traveled in luxurious interiors that would never again be seen in the air again, because of the 7 million cubic feet of hydrogen gas that ignited destroying not just the Hindenburg but also the use of blimps.

There are many conspiracies around why it exploded however the most commonly believed is that a static charge ignited hydrogen gas that had leaked into the ventilation. it is hard to tell if that is why it burned so fast.

Hermann Doehner was a general manager for the German wholesale drug company Beick, Felix y Compania. Hermann was born in Prussia, on September 22, 1887. At the age of 21 he migrated to Mexico to start a family and a prominent career. His work required him to travel over the Atlantic often. The Hindenburg voyage was not the first
