Ballooning in the Space Age is the first complete documentary of free ballooning history from Montgolfier's original" smoke" balloon in 1783 to the huge thin-gauge plastic balloons of today's modern technology. Lynn Poole has captured the story of free flight and told it magnificently. He has quite accurately reported many of the more significant events of the 175-year history of free ballooning.
