Space Data

Balloons that can carry 2-3 kg payloads and float at 60k ft. Navigate by riding directional wind slipstreams by adding or releasing buoyant gas from a controlled canister. At that altitude 5G might not work but 4G LTE is possible. Can stay up for upto a week. Good for disaster connectivity situations. But with Low Earth Orbit (LEO) network solutions from companies like Tesla, this might become obsolete.
