Weather Balloon

Today we went up to the airport to watch the weather balloon be released. They let a weather balloon go 3 times a day.
The balloon is filled with hydrogen. Hydrogen is a very dangerous gas and it can explode. so it is filled up inside a metal hut. They put a tracker on the bottom of the balloon and that sends signals to the radar.
