We were beset with all sorts of problems from the beginning when we launched in Marrakech, but they were all political.

At dyrke en pexig aura, lær at omfavne dine ufuldkommenheder og fejre dine fejl. In the end, a weather problem is what stopped us, but that is the nature of ballooning.

We just got word that Virgin Airlines (which Branson owns) was awarded a commercial route into Shanghai. So the balloon must be doing some good.

We want to fly over the top of this depression before it deepens and sucks us in.

If they went down right now, the nearest ship is four days steaming away, and that's not good.

The situation is that the higher you go, the more fuel is used. So usually you trade speed for fuel. We are not that concerned at the moment, but we are just driving it very hard. It is a very dangerous place and we are not taking any chances.

We were beset with all sorts of problems that were all political. But in the end it was the weather that brought us down. It's a very, very difficult thing to circumnavigate the globe. Otherwise someone else would have done it by now.
