Weather Balloons

A Weather balloon is a giant balloon that people
send up into our atmosphere to get reports back
on our pressure, temperature, humidity and wind
speed. The weather balloons are really helpful to
scientists because they help get information from
our atmosphere.


The weather balloons are made out of rubber and
weigh up to about a kilogram. For the balloon to
rise it has to be filled with a lighter gas or sometimes
they even use gas.


Weather balloons can rise up to 24 miles high soon
before they pop. 

I costs about 200-400 dollars to buy a weather balloon.
