EDITORS COMMENTS
This diagram from 1916 offers a fascinating glimpse into the inner workings of a Zeppelin airship during World War I. Known as the 'new features of the engines of frightfulness,' this cross-section illustration showcases the innovative design of the Zeppelin's observation car and hydrogen gas control system. The observation car, situated towards the rear of the airship, was a crucial component of Zeppelin warfare. Equipped with a comfortable observer's station, complete with a woollen mattress, the crew member stationed here could survey the battlefield below with unparalleled clarity. This vantage point allowed for precise target identification and navigation, making the observation car an essential tool for the success of a Zeppelin raid. The hydrogen gas control system, located beneath the observation car, was another critical aspect of the Zeppelin's design. Consisting of a series of valves, pipes, and tanks, this system allowed the crew to manage the airship's buoyancy and maintain a stable altitude. The use of hydrogen as a lifting gas provided the Zeppelin with unrivaled lifting capacity and endurance, making it an effective weapon of war during the early years of the 20th century. The full swing of the Zeppelin's engines can be seen in the foreground of the diagram, highlighting the immense power required to keep these massive airships aloft. Despite the fear and destruction they instilled in their enemies, the intricate details of the Zeppelin's design reveal a remarkable engineering feat that continues to captivate our imaginations today.
