内容記述 | A NASA development program is described for establishing near-global long-duration balloon (LDB) capabilities for both Antarctic and midlatitude applications. The program is intended to evaluate, research, and develop the balloon structures and systems needed for scientific payloads of over 1500 lbs for periods of up to three weeks. The systems examined include: control functions, data processing, power, navigation/positioning, and telecommunications. Test flights of the LDB Development Project in Antarctica are reported in which a 28 million cu ft balloon was launched with 3611 lbs of suspended weight. The subsystems under development are reported to work effectively for the test flights. Planned flights for the LDB based on these developments include gamma-ray and X-ray campaigns, a long-duration test in Antarctica, and an experiment based on magnetic passive isotopes. |
