How much room do you need to launch a hot air balloon?
Generally an area as long as the height of the balloon standing up, with at least 3-4 metres or longer (depending on the size of the balloon) for the crown line that helps stabilise the balloon as it is being inflated. The width should be about half the height, but this can vary as there is some leeway, particularly if there are balloons being inflated together side by side.

Can you give liquid morphine sublingual in a pic line?
No. For one reason, you cannot go sublingually through a PICC line, as a PICC line would not be inserted sublingually. The most glaring issue however, is that oral morphine (which I think you are suggesting) can only be given orally. A PICC line is an intravenous route, and would therefore not be appropriate.
