Union balloonist Thaddeus Lowe was able to observe the defenses of Richmond, Virginia. His balloons sometimes reached a height of 1,000 feet.
The altitude of Richmond VA is approximately 150 ft. and that of Staunton VA is approximately 1086 ft.
Richmond has an elevation of 166 feet and Nashville's elevation is 597 feet which means that Nashville is three times taller then Richmond.
the balloonist would turn off the burner, allowing the air inside the balloon to cool down. Hot air rises so as the air cools down the balloon will lose altitude.
In the 1962 Cuban Missile Crisis, reconnaissance photographs taken by a high-altitude U-2 spy plane showed that Soviet missiles were being constructed in Cuba and aimed at the United States.
A balloonist controls the balloon's altitude by adjusting the temperature inside the envelope. By heating the air with burners, the balloon rises, and by allowing the air to cool, the balloon descends. Additionally, the balloonist can control horizontal movement by finding winds blowing in different directions at varying altitudes.
The first photographs of the far side of the moon were taken by the Soviet mission Luna 3. It tool 29 photographs on 7 October 1959, from an altitude ranging from 63,500 km to 66,700 km above the surface.

Green is a non example of altitude.
Let the given area is 10cm. Base of the triangle is 4 cm. altitude of triangle=? Area= 1/2 x Base x altitude 10= 1/2 x 4x altitude 10=2 x altitude 10/2= altitude 5= altitude Hence, altitude of the triangle is 5 cm.
