What would happen if you could fill a balloon with a vacuum?

Asked by filmfann (52232points) January 12th, 2012

If you could get a balloon to maintain it’s shape, and replaced the helium with a vacuum, wouldn’t it float much faster and higher?
Isn’t it the fact that helium is lighter than air that makes it rise?
