Google project Loon: Here is how LOON moves!



Here is the approach which has been adopted by Google engineers to make it possible: ‘’Winds in the stratosphere are generally steady
and slow-moving at between 5 and 20 mph, and each layer of wind varies in direction and magnitude.’’ Google harnesses this reality combined with algorithms to determine where its balloons need to go, then moves each one into a layer of wind blowing in the right direction.
We also discovered that by moving with the wind, the balloons can be arranged to form one large communications network. Project Loon balloons travel around 20 km above the Earth’s surface in the stratosphere.
