Original Note:
It's a super pressure balloon partially inflated as it’s being prepared to launch from New Zealand on April 16, with the Super Pressure Balloon Imaging Telescope. It was designed to float at 33.5 km with the winds carrying it about the southern hemisphere’s mid-latitude band. https://www.nasa.gov/centers-and-facilities/wallops/lift-off-nasas-super-pressure-balloon-takes-flight-from-new-zealand/
