A FLYING HOUSE


Now a days even a house can fly!!!! You don`t believe me! Well, after getting inspiration from the animated movie Up National Geographic' engineers decided to do it. On March 5th at dawn, National Geographic Channel and a team of scientists, engineers, and two world-class balloon pilots successfully launched a 16′ x 16′ x 18′ tall house with three hundred 8′ colored weather balloons from a private airfield east of Los Angeles. It was floating for about an hour 10,000 feet (3,050 m) high. It is the new world record for the biggest balloon cluster flight.
