Ishpeming, Michigan – April 17th, 2015 – The 4th birthday celebrations for my nephew have come to an end. Yesterday we celebrated the second birthday party for my nephew in West Ishpeming. After the party my nephew was able to release the 20+ balloons that were a part of the celebration. You’ll see in this picture that my nephew released the balloons on Thursday night. First, he made 2 wishes…
This got me thinking. How long do balloons last in the Earth’s atmosphere? I’ve heard balloons can travel for many miles before popping. Do you think these balloons made it to outer space?
