A vertically stable aerial platform having an envelope assembly with an envelope having an edge and a base. The envelope is an aerodynamically shaped inflatable housing filled with lighter-than-air gas, whereby the envelope is substantially convex and the base is substantially flat. The lighter-than-air gas within the envelope provides lift. Further having a base frame assembly, a tail assembly, and a ground station. The ground station has a winch assembly, an electrical system, and an electrically conducted tether. The electrically conducted tether is wound onto the winch assembly to raise or lower the aerial platform to a desired predetermined altitude having ideal wind conditions at any given time. Further having a mounting post to mount a wind turbine assembly, camera equipment, communication system antennas, and/or equipment thereon.
