NASA’s ASTHROS balloon observatory

Summary

DescriptionNASA’s ASTHROS.webp	English: Lofted by a stratospheric balloon, as shown in this illustration, NASA’s ASTHROS mission may reach an altitude of 130,000 feet (40 kilometers). From that height, the telescope can detect wavelengths of light that are blocked by Earth’s atmosphere and cannot be observed from the ground.
