The Hindenburg was a marval of the Zepplin airship design. The Hindenburg was a German passenger airship. The Hindenburg was a blimp that blew up May 6, 1937. The Hindenburg would carry a gas volume of 7,062,000 cubic feet. The gas that maybe made the Hindenburg blow up was hydrogen. The actual cause of the fire was never determined. They think the material they used to hold all the hydrogen in the Hindenburg caused a static spark which easily caused the hydrogen to ignite and it burned the Hindenburg down. Out of 97 people 35 people died in the crash. The Hindenburg was named after Paulvon Hindenburg, the president of Germany. It was the largest aircraft ever. The Hindenburg could go up to 84 miles per hour. The Hindenburg was 803.8 feet long and 135.1 feet wide.
