And at 20 miles altitude, -(some 100,000 feet!, -Stratosphere or Better!-Spacecraft Re-entry begins only 4 times farther away), -This is well above aircraft flight levels too! Far and Away! Gosh!, -Thats even higher than the SR-71 flew! (My Most Beloved of all Aircraft!).

Brings to mind a Question, -What was the name of that government Stratospheric Balloon Project, -of the 50s or 60s, -which I pretty well recall as beginning with a "P"?

(I'm not referring to Kittinger's 1961 jump, -though thats a Great, Fondly Remembered thing too!) [color:"black"] [/color] [email]Arney[/email]
