Aerodynamic and Mission Performance of a Winged Balloon Guidance System
A winged balloon guidance system exploits the natural wind-field variation with the altitude available in planetary atmospheres to generate passive lateral control forces on a balloon using a tether-deployed aerodynamic surface below the balloon. Several balloon guidance system topics are discussed,including development status,physics and aerodynamics,systems performance, concept of operations,and the near-space applications of this technology for scientific,communications,and defense applications.

STRATOSPHERIC SATELLITES FOR EARTH OBSERVATIONS
Very long-duration stratospheric balloon platforms could provide revolutionary Earth observations for a fraction of the cost of competing platforms, such as stratospheric unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) and airships and space satellites. Full Paper
A NEW TECHNOLOGY FOR MONITORING GLOBAL DISASTERS
ALTADENA, CA – At the annual meeting of the Global Disaster Information Network in Rome, Italy last month, Global Aerospace Corporation introduced a new type of satellite that can provide communications and remote sensing data for disasters in remote areas of the world with no technological infrastructure. The new satellites, Stratospheric Satellites, consist of NASA-developed […]
GLOBAL CONSTELLATIONS OF STRATOSPHERIC BALLOONS
ALTADENA, CA – Global Aerospace Corporation announced today that it has been awarded a $500,000 Phase II contract from NASA’s Institute for Advanced Concepts (NIAC) to develop a revolutionary concept for networks of stratospheric balloons. Networks of superpressure balloons can help scientists to study many major environmental problems. Changes involving tropical circulation and radiation balances, polar ozone depletion, and […]
