A rockoon is a
rocket
that is launched from a
high altitude balloon
. The rockoon approach allows a
small rocket
to obtain a
very high altitude
because there is little
air
to slow it down during launch. Rockoons were first flown by
James Van Allen
in the
1950's
as part of a joint Navy/university project, but were
abandoned
when sufficiently large
ground-based
sounding rockets became available.
