Image title	Nineteen Miles High: This dramatic photo shows Major David G. Simon, who set new altitude record of 102,000 feet in a 32-hour balloon flight, near the peak of his climb to heights never before reached by a balloon. Major Simons, an Air Force biologist, photographed himself by timing the flash of strobe light set in the balloon gondola to illuminate the interior for periodic photo-recording of instruments.
