Polar patrol balloon project in Antarctica
We are planning to carry out a circumpolar ballooning project called "Polar Patrol Balloon (PPB)" project. The main objective of the PPB project is to establish a station network at altitudes higher than 30km over the Antarctic for the studies of upper atmosphere physics, cosmic ray physic...
