Spider is a balloon-borne experiment designed to search for primordial gravitational waves imprinted on the cosmic microwave background (CMB). Measuring the strength of this signal puts limits on inflationary theory. The Spider experiment hanging from the launch vehicle prior to its first flight over Antarctica.

The Millimeter Anisotropy eXperiment IMaging Array (MAXIMA) [1] experiment was a balloon-borne experiment funded by the United States NSF, NASA, and Department of Energy, and operated by an international collaboration headed by the University of California, to measure the fluctuations of the cosmic microwave background.
BESS is a particle physics experiment carried by a balloon. BESS stands for Balloon-borne Experiment with Superconducting Spectrometer. [1] See also
When the valve is opened, the smaller balloon shrinks and the larger balloon expands. The two-balloon experiment is an experiment involving interconnected balloons. It is used in physics classes as a demonstration of elasticity. Two identical balloons are inflated to different diameters and connected by means of a tube.
The base of the sample balloon was modified to take a cylindrical fitting (#40) that was fitted with the blower. The blower would operate at the ceiling altitude of 80,000 feet (24,000 m) for of the order of two hours to fill the sample balloon with about 33,000 cubic feet (930 m 3) of air. The inflated sample balloon is illustrated in Figure 2 ...
Trappe continued to experiment in cluster ballooning flights. In 2011, he replicated the floating house from the animated film Up for a National Geographic television program. [28] On July 6, 2015, Daniel Boria of Calgary, Alberta, Canada, tied about 100 helium balloons to a garden chair and flew over his city in a publicity stunt.
BOOMERanG experiment (Balloon Observations Of Millimetric Extragalactic Radiation And Geophysics) was an experiment that flew a telescope on a (high-altitude) balloon and measured the cosmic microwave background radiation of a part of the sky during three sub-orbital flights.
