A review is presented of the long duration balloon (LDB) project to develop a near-global capability for both Antarctica and midlatitude applications. This project would include the systems required to conduct flights of scientific experiments weighing 1500 lb or more on conventional balloons for periods up to three weeks. The objective of this program is to satisfy approved support requirements for experimenters conducting scientific tests from free-floating high-altitude balloons.
