PROCEEDINGS, AFCRL TETHERED BALLOON WORKSHOP, 1967

Abstract

The AFCRL Tethered Balloon Workshop was held in October 1967 for the purpose of exchanging information on the current tethered ballooning. This was the first such meeting held exclusively for reporting on this rapidly expanding technology. In addition to informal meetings, nineteen prepared talks were presented, all of which are contained herein. Subjects include: tethered balloon motion, balloon design, fiberglas tether cables, tethered balloon instrumentation, a tethered balloon winch, and several operational programs that used tethered balloon systems.
