Balloonomania was a strong public interest or fad in balloons that originated in France in the late 18th century and continued into the 19th century, during the advent of balloon flights. The interest began with the first flights of the Montgolfier brothers in 1783 (in a balloon inflated with hot air). Soon afterwards Jacques Alexandre César Charles flew another type of balloon (inflated with hydrogen) and both types of balloon were in use from then on. The fad quickly spread in France and across the channel in England.

- La Globomanía fue un fuerte interés público o moda por los globos que se originó en Francia a finales del siglo XVIII y continuó en el siglo XIX, durante la llegada de los vuelos en globo. El interés comenzó con los primeros vuelos de los hermanos Montgolfier en 1783 (en un globo inflado con aire caliente). Poco después, Jacques Alexandre César Charles voló en otro tipo de globo (inflado con hidrógeno) y ambos tipos de globo se utilizaron a partir de entonces. La moda se extendió rápidamente en Francia y al otro lado del canal en Inglaterra. (es)

text
| - Advent’rous youth! What urged thy distant flight,
Beyond the finite ken of human sight?
Seest thou yon silver orb men call the moon?
Thither now speed thee with thy air balloon. (en)
- There’s something in a flying Horse,
There’s something in a huge balloon:
But through the Clouds I’ll never float
Until I have a little Boat
Shaped like the crescent-moon. (en)
- Bright ball of flame that thro the gloom of even
Silently takest thine etherial way
And with surpassing glory dimmst each ray
Twinkling amid the dark blue Depths of Heaven
Unlike the Fire thou bearest, soon shall thou
Fade like a meteor in surrounding gloom
Whilst that unquencheable is doomed to glow
A watch light by the patriots lonely tomb
A ray of courage to the opprest & poor,
A spark tho' gleaming on the hovel's hearth
Which thro the tyrants gilded domes shall roar
A beacon in the darkness of the Earth
A Sun which oer the renovated scene
Shall dart like Truth where yet has been (en)
