Albumtekst:
A cosmic-ray research balloon more than 400 feet high is partially filled with helium preparatory to leaving the deck of the US Navy aircraft carrier Valley Forge. By adjusting the speed of the ship to compensate for wind velocity, the balloon rises straight in the air. At the height of its flight -- an altitude of 21 miles -- the expanded helium completely filled the 300-foot-diameter ballon.
