Paint-on Antennas for Mile-High Airships 77
Bravoc writes to tell us RTI International is reporting that a group of researchers are testing a "paint-on antenna" for high-altitude airships. From the article: "'The successful airship test flights demonstrate exciting possibilities for "paint-on" antenna technologies,' said David Myers, vice president of RTI's Engineering and Technology Unit. 'This new technology can be used to assist with hurricane disaster relief, provide enhanced security of ports and borders, perform science observation missions and improve military communications.'"
That's one really tall airship! (Score:4, Funny)
(Perhaps you meant "mile altitude airships"?)
Mile high? (Score:5, Funny)
Hell, here in Boulder, a mile high would be an underground airship.
