Solar eclipse to be streamed live from balloons for 1st time
The August 21 solar eclipse will be streamed live for the first time, from over 50 helium-filled balloons launched from various locations across the US. The balloons would give a view of the eclipse from about 80,000 feet. The eclipse, first to cross the entire US' width in 99 years, will pass from Oregon to South Carolina in 90 minutes.
