EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the historic descent of the balloon "Pole Nord" during its voyage from Champ de Mars in Paris to Anneau, Eure et Loir, on June 26-27, 1869. The image is a testament to the pioneering spirit of aeronautics in the late 19th century, as documented by the renowned French aeronaut Gaston Tissandier. The diagram superimposed on the photograph provides essential information about the balloon's trajectory during its journey. The trajectoire de l'aérostat (elevation) curve illustrates the altitude changes experienced by the balloon as it ascended and descended, while the courbe de trainage (plan) shows the distance covered in the horizontal plane. These measurements were meticulously recorded during the flight, providing invaluable data for the study of atmospheric conditions and the advancement of ballooning technology. The Pole Nord balloon, piloted by Tissandier and his brother Jacques, embarked on this groundbreaking expedition with the ambition to break the distance record for balloon flights. Their successful voyage from Paris to Anneau, a distance of approximately 260 kilometers, solidified their place in the annals of aeronautical history. This photograph, sourced from the AG Renstrom collection at the Library of Congress, offers a fascinating glimpse into the past, showcasing the spirit of exploration and innovation that continues to drive the field of aeronautics to this day.
