ABSTRACT:
Balloon Technology is a research and
development project being developed
by Google with the mission of
providing Internet access to rural and remote
areas. The project uses high-altitude
balloons placed in the stratosphere at an altitude
of about 32 km (20 mi) to create an
aerial wireless network with up to 3G-like
speeds.[ It was named Project Loon, since
Google itself found the very idea of providing
internet access to the remaining 5 billion
population quite unprecedented and crazy.
