Breed pigeons on the ISS, put adorable space helmets on them and release them in orbit to do space exploration. Jocks want to send a man to mars, nerds want to send robots, a bird would be a sensible compromise.

I don't think a blimp will work in space. It's too cold so all the hot air will freeze

I don't need to know anything about virii! My CUSTOM PROGRAM keeps me protected! It's not like they'll try to come in through the Internet or something!
Blimpie makes submarine sandwiches, which raises another great idea, we should make blimps that also work as submarines. If they can also go into space that would be good too.

In meteorology, vorticity often refers to a measurement of the spin of horizontally flowing air about a vertical axis.

Wait I think I have this. We take a submarine, and we make the tanks into vacuum chambers, and since no air is lighter than air, it should float right up into space!

Wasn't the record for the highest sky-dive set with a specialized blimp? I think it was shaped like a lunar lander.

this is actually how they get into the high atmosphere for space flight in the book The Diamond Age. of course they use nano-ballons that are super light, not pressure tanks made out of iron.
