A lift generation system embodying tetrahedral lifting cells capable of lift through the inflation of lighter than air gas. During an initial lift, the tetrahedral lifting cells may be assembled into larger geodesic shells. The assembled geodesic shell is capable of generating greater lift through filling the enclosed volume they defined with additional lighter than air gas.
