Weather Balloon Spooling Into Autumn Night Sky in near a weather balloon launch site in Czech Republic

Weather Balloon Spooling Into Autumn Night Sky

by Barbara Brewer

Pale pink twilight fades into a deep indigo ceiling over a damp field in the Czech Republic. A large spool sits in deep shadow, its metal rim catching a faint, cool light from the horizon. Thin white line unspools from the reel, rising straight into the heavy, humid air. Wet grass reflects the low light, and fallen brown leaves rest on the ground near the equipment. The balloon itself is barely visible as a small shape against the darkening sky, tethered by the taut thread. Moisture beads on the spool's surface, highlighting the texture of the metal casing against the soft, fading colors of the evening.
