Wow. Theese is garbage! You actually like theese?Probably the most boring topic they could have picked. After all, who wants to hear about the weather?? Anything is more interesting than the weather! Even weather balloons are more interesting than the weather!! Hey, that's an idea!! It's not like I haven't altered ever other day of this challenge so far!! Lemme just go change the post title... There! Maybe I should start over......
Hello!! Today's post was sadly hijacked by another post of superior quality. Therefore, today's actual post will now be on the topic of weather balloons, which are fascinating in the history of meteorology and the science of All. Things. Balloon.
First, for a short historical lesson.
Balloons were first utilised for tracking and studying weather in 1896 by a French scientist named Léon Teisserenc de Bort. He sent off hundreds of them. It was super cool. Since then, the materials used to create them and the instruments attached to them have only grown more sophisticated. They are primarily used to track atmospheric pressure, wind speed, temperature, and a buncha other stuff. All of which is also super cool.
Now for some visual aid:
This is a vintage weather balloon.
This is also a vintage weather balloon.
This is a modern weather balloon.
This is a person who is either attempting to himself be a weather balloon, or is impersonating the house from Up.
This concludes our lecture. On behalf of our whole staff, we heartily thank you for taking a few moments from your day to study the marvels of one of Science's greatest tools: the Weather Balloon.
