I want to welcome each and every balloon enthusiast to Philadephia. Thank you for coming here this morning to commemoratethe first balloon voyage in the United states. On january 9th ,1793,at ten o`clock morining, a silk balloon lifed into sky(skies) above this city, which was, at the time, the capital of the country. yAccording to the original records of the flight, the voyage lasted 46 minutes, from its departureof Philadelphia to its landing across the Delaware River in New Jersey. Though our pilotstoday we will try to approximate the original landing site, they`re all at the mercy恩惠,幸运of the winds, so who knows where they will drift off to. Even the balloonist in 1793 experienced some uncertain weather that days. They were clouds,fog, and mist in various directions. Our reenactment再修订法律 promises to be nothing less than spectacular壮观的. the yellow balloon directly behind me is five stories层`s high. It`s inflated使充气 with helium氦 unlike the original, which was filled with hydrogen氢 and, unbeknownst to the pilot, potentially explosive. Gas-filled models are pretty uncommen now because of the extremely high cost, so the 18 other balloons in today`s launch are hot air, heated by propane丙烷 burners灯心. These balloons re from all over the country.8 V5 o; `, W7 g9 J/ Q5 X' s V 3 s0 |- T$ a& l% l/ ]% e1 }
