Festo Balloons spotted over Las Vegas

[peter halle]

Although they have been flying since 2005 or so I can't remember seeing an image of the Festo Balloons.  These were spotted flying over Las Vegas and I saw them on the news this morning.  The one that appears to be upside down is specially designed and due to poor visibility requires the other ballon for steering, etc.

Balloons have steering?

Nah .. It's simply a case of one ballon going up and the other one is coming down!
