Image description

Global Hilton commander Dick Rutan steps aboard the crew capsule January 9 in Albuquerque to begin final preparations for an attempt to circle the world non-stop in a balloon. The balloon was launched shortly before dawn, but just a few hours after launching the helium container on the craft ruptured and the balloon will have to be brought down soon. Rutan and pilot Dave Melton had hoped to become the first to fly a balloon around the world non-stop. BALLOON
