The record breaking 42-day balloon flight of CREAM
The Cosmic Ray Energetics And Mass (CREAM) balloon-bome experiment circumnavigated the South Pole three times during a 42-day flight from 16 December 2004 to 27 January 2005 in its quest to explore a limit to the acceleration of cosmic rays in supemovae. The balloon altitude stayed between 125,000 f...
