And to do a capsule, there's an amazing amount of complexity that goes into it, and it weighed about 3,000 pounds, and to raise 3,000 pounds to an altitude of 135,000 feet, which was my target altitude, it would have taken a balloon that was 45 to 50 million cubic feet.
Pour utiliser une capsule, sans parler de l'incroyable complexité qui va avec, vous devez soulever environ 1350 kg ; et pour soulever 1350 kg et atteindre l'altitude de 40 km, qui était mon objectif, il m’aurait fallu un ballon entre 1 et 1,5 millions de m3.
