Japan-Sweden first balloon experiment
This report is to describe a result of the first Japanese balloon campaign at Esrange (67°52.2′N, 21°04.2′E) which has been carried out in August-September, 1980. Two balloons of Japanese type B_5 (5000m^3) were successfully flown on September 10 and 11,1980 from the balloon launching pad at Esrange...
