Project Loon
[edit]
- ... that Project Loon (research balloon pictured) is a R & D project by Google to send thousands of high-altitude balloons into the stratosphere to beam wireless Internet to remote locations worldwide?
- Comment: Could I have this DYK as first in the queue with picture. Thanks.

Article new enough, long enough and with policy, etc. Hook fully referenced. I cannot prove the free use of the photograph though, as the link to where it is taken from (flickr) does not work. --Rushton2010 (talk) 13:42, 20 June 2013 (UTC)
- Fixed broken link. Link shows copyright now at Flickr as CC BY 2.0 (Attribution).--Doug Coldwell (talk) 14:48, 20 June 2013 (UTC)
Thanks for that. Link now fixed and permissions are all correct. So all good to go. --Rushton2010 (talk) 15:00, 20 June 2013 (UTC)
- Can the sentence be revised to change "developing" to "R&D" and "balloons" to "high-altitude balloons"? - M0rphzone (talk) 00:11, 21 June 2013 (UTC)
Done--Doug Coldwell (talk) 11:00, 21 June 2013 (UTC)
