Description: SPICE - Stratospheric Particle Injection for Climate Engineering. Engineers from the University of Cambridge and Marshall Aerospace will assess the effect of wind on tethered balloon at a height of 1km while at the same time pumping water at a rate of around 1kg/min. They will be using the data obtained from these tests in computer models aimed at examining how a full-scale tethered balloon might behave in the high winds experienced at altitudes up 20km.
