Video: HALO research aircraft – atmospheric research around the globe
Penetrating into the stratosphere for research, flying over the North and South poles, and travelling to far-flung corners of the world to collect atmospheric data: This is the scope of applications for the one-of-a-kind HALO research aircraft (HALO stands for High Altitude and Long Range Research Aircraft) which operates in a broad partnership between German environmental and climate research institutes. Since 2012, the extensively modified Gulfstream G550 has been deployed on more than 20 research missions across five continents.
