Saucer platforms in the sky...


From DefenseIndustryDaily.com:

Like all DARPA projects, ISIS is pushing the limits of technology. Critical technology areas requiring further development include low aerial-density advanced airship hull material, bonding systems that will keep the radar attached to a hull with different thermal properties in temperatures that can cycle between 100 degrees F to -110 degrees (40C to -80C), extremely low-power transmit-receive modules for the radars, and novel power systems for long-endurance stratospheric airship operation.
