Fli!!'ht 82: Released from Alamogordo, New Mexico, 0515 MST, August 10, 1948
Recovered at Roswell, New iloiexico
This flight was made with a 20-foot, .001" polye~~ylene balloon carrying
a load to 54,000 feet and sustained by a t·ixed-leak orl'ice control, ex-
pending ballast at abcut 525 grams per hour. '\Vith 4500 grams of ballast aboard
the· balloon should have been increasingly buoyant t'or ~ hours after release.
From the barogram (Figure ~5) it may be seen that the "ceiling" did rise, at

a rate of 700 feet per hour (525 gra.."lls of' ballast was lost each hour), i'or
about 7~ hours, and then generally accelerating descent was experienced.
On this flight, radio reception was maintained i'or the entire air-borne
period of 11 hours. Flight 82 is a good example of i'light using a single
fixed-leak orifice for altitude control by ballast dropping.
