Project loon

By
Although internet has become such a handy thing for people having access to internet that they roam about with it in their pockets, but this has been possible for those countries that can afford fibre optic cables for connectivity and therefore the bitter truth remains that nearly two-thirds of the world population do not yet have internet access. The Google[X] team has therefore taken an initiative to bridge this gap and make the world actually connected to one another by introducing Google’s Project Loon.

WHAT IS PRIOJECT LOON:

 “Google’s Project Loon” – a network of balloons travelling on the edge of space – is designed to connect people in rural and remote areas, helping fill coverage gaps, and bringing people back online after natural disasters. 
Project Loon balloons float in the stratosphere, twice as high as airplanes and the weather. 
They are carried around the Earth by winds and they can be steered by rising or descending to an altitude with winds moving in the desired direction. 
People connect to the balloon network using a special Internet antenna attached to their building. 
The signal bounces from balloon to balloon, then to the global Internet back on Earth. 

ENVELOPE:

Project Loon’s balloon envelopes are made of :-
 sheets of polyethylene plastic and stand fifteen meters wide by twelve meters tall when fully inflated. 
  A parachute attached to the top of the envelope allows for a controlled descent and landing whenever a balloon is ready to be taken out of service.
Each unit’s electronics are powered by an array of solar panels. These panels produce 100 Watts of power.

ITS MOVEMENT IN WIND:

Winds in the stratosphere  (10 to 60 km of altitude)are  steady and slow-moving  between 5 and 20 mph, and each layer of wind varies in direction. 
Project Loon uses software algorithms to determine where its balloons need to go.
ADVANTAGES:
This project will offer worldwide access to everyone those who are as per now beyond the geographic reach of  internet.
It  provides connectivity at speeds comparable to 3G for  about area of 40 km in diameter.
Wireless connection to the Web available for free to every person in the world.
 It would offer a humanitarian communication system
