Good luck.. the highest atmospheric density on Mars is equal to the density found 35 km above the Earth's surface

I think a latex balloon filled with hydrogen could achieve positive buoyancy. Just bring a little bit of water and you can make your own hydrogen.

I don't know of many latexes that are springy at -100 C.

Touché. See Camper Bob's response for something that would make more sense.

It wouldn't have to be latex. What's wrong with mylar?
