your "magical plasma"  perhaps invisible balloons hold them up ?

wrong, they go with the wind, updraft which is convection current, or
downdraft, also an air current.

too simplistic;

"fall speed" is incorrect terminology, it is "terminal velocity", and it
is dependent upon the viscosity, pressure field, of the air it is
falling through, and g, and Re.

Wrong, H2O is lighter than N2 or O2, do the math,dummy

no, you are that simple.
