The Airborne Symphony also known as Symphony The Airborne is a work by American composer Marc Blitzstein for narrator, vocal soloists, male chorus, and large orchestra. The symphony uses music that the United States Army Air Forces , in which Blitzstein served during the World War II , originally commissioned for use in film. History Blitzstein began the war as a member of the U.S. Eighth Army Air Force s film division in London , England , working as a composer, scriptwriter, and translator. He was chosen to score a film on the history of aviation through his promotion to corporal in January 1943. Blitzstein also began work on the orchestral poem Freedom Morning that summer for eventual performance in Royal Albert Hall . Work on the Airborne score continued into 1944, with Blitzstein providing other services to the U.S. Army. By mid 1944, he had been promoted to sergeant and became music director of the American Broadcasting Service. The original film project did not come to fruition and Blitzstein, who composed his score for a large orchestra and male chorus, did not have the needed manpower for a wartime concert.

noreferences date December 2010 Image NASA C 141A KAO.jpg thumb right Kuiper Airborne Observatory telescope through small black rectangle near nose An airborne observatory is an airplane or research balloon balloon with an astronomical telescope . By carrying the telescope to a sufficiently high altitude, the telescope can avoid cloud cover , pollution , and carry out Observational astronomy observations in the infrared spectrum, above water vapor in the atmosphere which water absorption absorb s infrared radiation. Some drawbacks to this approach are the instability of the lifting platform, the weight restrictions on the instrument, the need to safely recover the gear afterward, and the cost compared to a comparable ground based observatory. Balloon borne telescope s have been used for observation from the stratosphere since the Stratoscope Stratoscope I was launched in 1957. ref name ns A number of different instruments have since been carried aloft by balloons for observation in the infrared, microwave, X ray and gamma ray bands. The BOOMERanG experiment , flown between 1997 2003, ref name np48 1 243 and the Millimeter Anisotropy eXperiment IMaging Array MAXIMA , which made flights in 1998 and 1999, ref name rsi77 7 were used to map the Cosmic Microwave Background Radiation . The Kuiper Airborne Observatory , first flown in 1974, consisted of a Convert 36 in cm abbr on aperture Cassegrain reflector carried aloft on a Lockheed C 141 Starlifter C 141A jet transport to perform infrared observations. In terms of aperture, the largest aircraft borne instrument to date is a Convert 2.7 m in abbr on reflector telescope carried by a modified Boeing 747 for the Stratospheric Observatory for Infrared Astronomy SOFIA project. This instrument was put into use for astronomical observation in 2010.
