Balloon Taunts Navy in Pacific Skyward Quest
The navy’s Skyhook Glynco balloon, 40 stories tall with a two ton gondola of cosmic ray instruments, drifted 500 miles west of San Diego at 50 000 to 60 000 feet, eluding a week of chase from 16 crewmen and failed explosive retrieval near Houston. Radar beacons tracked it as officials said it would likely drift longer, with the gondola designed to float and instruments growing in value the longer aloft.
