Aeronauts

The Aeronauts, also known as hot air balloonists, are individuals who pilot balloons for exploration, observation, or entertainment. They often work with specialized equipment to control altitude and direction, using techniques like releasing ballast or adjusting vents. Historically, aeronauts contributed to scientific discoveries, such as studying weather or Earth's atmosphere, by ascending to high altitudes. Modern aeronauts may participate in recreational flying or scientific missions, combining skill, technology, and knowledge of meteorology to safely navigate the skies and gather valuable data.
