The Balloon-Borne Particle Astrophysics Magnet Facility and the Max '91 Solar Balloon Program exemplify NASA's state-of-the-art uses of instrumented balloons in scientific research. The latter program will involve the carriage of sophisticated solar study instrumentation over the mid-latitudes and Antarctica; four test flights of this balloon from Australia to South America are contributing to the development of a long-duration flight-support system with global tracking, command, and telemetry at both mid and high latitudes.
