This Telescope Will Fly Higher Than Airplanes! | WION Podcast

NASA is preparing to launch ASTHROS, a powerful 8.4-foot telescope, into the stratosphere aboard a giant balloon the size of a football stadium. Set to fly from Antarctica, it will soar 1,30,000 feet above Earth—four times higher than commercial planes—to observe far-infrared light blocked by the atmosphere. The mission will map star-forming regions in 3D and test new space tech. ASTHROS will float for about three weeks, offering critical insights into the birth of stars and the behavior of interstellar gas. It’s a bold step toward future space exploration.
