The pioneering use of hydrogen for lift led to this type of balloon being named a Charlière – as opposed to a Montgolfière which used hot air. In December 1783 a manned gas balloon flight was attempted. Jacques Charles was accompanied by Nicolas-Louis Robert in the 380-cubic-metre, hydrogen-filled balloon - a 2-hour 5 minute flight covering 36 km.
