Hey guys! Hope everyone is great today! I have a simple question regarding gravity and atmospheric density that maybe any of you would like to answer. What would be a combination of low gravity and high atmospheric density that would enable a 100 kg object (shape it the way you want - a flat panel will do) to remain buoyant above a planetary surface, floating in the dense atmosphere? I will specially appreciate equations showing the equilibrium of forces. Let me know if I am missing something that would hinder my assumptions. Many thanks in advance!
