A Balloon Engineer Explains What’s Up

My hopes were to learn some geeky facts but the article did not deliver.

Blew my mind to read that they can be safely landed and reused though. That’s new information to me.

For geeky facts I found these pages:

https://www.csbf.nasa.gov/balloons.html

https://www.nasa.gov/scientific-balloons/types-of-balloons

Not much engineering here, so a deceptive original headline in my judgement.

“Let’s put a pun in the headline, to make it pop”
