I had seen reports that the balloon was the length of 3-4 school busses but it appears that was misreported and just repeated. The PAYLOAD was the length of 3-4 school busses.
I haven’t been following this much until today/ vaguely aware as an amusing background story.
But, has anyone seen high res photos of the balloon or someone doing back of the envelope math on the size of the balloon portion?
I ask simply because a payload the length of 3-4 school busses (apparently 45 feet) would be quite large and the ballon itself much much larger than I was imagining
