You can create helium from hydrogen...but you need nuclear reactions, which Bloopers cannot do.

Not to mention it being extremely difficult and time-consuming to do so.

You don't need just any nuclear reation#### You need nuclear fission. Which actualy isn't that hard.

Yes it is. it costs our government thousands of dollars to replicate. And nueclear fusion is different. It's actually transmutation.

I said fission not fussion.

They do not. The closest thing to that is when plants use molecular fission to seperate carbon and oxygen. neuclear fission is much easier than transmutation, because it seperates an atom rather than adding on to it.

Fission is transmutaion. ;l

It is a type, yes, but fission specifically refers to the splitting of atoms.

Nuclear reactions can be either fission or fusion. This changes the elements used. Fission involves radioactive atoms breaking apart, which is extremely difficult to control. Fusion cannot be replicated in Earth-like environments in this time period.
"Molecular fission" is actually just a chemical reaction. The elements themselves are not changed.
Animals like Bloopers would only be able to make chemical reactions. No animal can make a nuclear reaction.

Also.....transmutation happens anytime an atom changes into a different type of atom through nuclear reaction. I think Toomai is mostly right except that there is actualy a theory called Biological transmutation. Some scientists think that some organisms may have the ability to transmute atoms. However likely that is on our planet, you have to agree that it would be at least 10 times as likely on ME.

Well, anyway, even if it was possible, I doubt anything could do it efficiently enough to cause itself to float.

If it created helium for a few years and was verry good at containing it, a lightweight blooper could have enough to float with. But I still think that ME atmostpher must be denser or composed of a diferent ratio of elements. That would explain how Mario and Luigi can jump so high.

Let's just use a simple answer, shall we?
Bloopers float by shooting air out of their nozzles (as opposed to shooting ink).

Or Bloopers can just jump high because there is low gravity on the Mushroom Earth
Also, in MKDS and MKW Bloopers squirt ink at the lakitu camera not the people

1) They can't do that because they can keep pushing themselves up.
2) This wouldn't obstruct the vision of the drivers, making it useless.

If they can keep pushing themselves up then they must shoot air through their nose/mouth thingies

That's what we agreed on.

Well now it's what everyone agreed on

Well whatever...I agree with it too. It makes enugh sense. Especialy if you also agree with there being denser air. It would't be hard at all for a lightweight blooper to just use jets of air to move through the sky.

Yea it can also fire ink really hard
