Balloonists Lift Off For 30 Hour Skyward Ascent
CROSE Minn AP Two veteran balloonists Cmdr Malcolm Ross and former Navy flyer M Lee Lewis rose from a northern Minnesota iron mine for a 30 hour ascent. The 17 story plastic balloon carried a gondola with a TV camera that transmitted live images of the ascent to KSTP as the craft climbed past 60 000 feet into the stratosphere. Officials hailed it as a first with full sea level pressure in the upper atmosphere and a TV signal from a balloon broadcast to Minneapolis St Paul stations. The flight extended beyond the planned 24 hours as the craft drifted eastward over western Minnesota.
