Of course I read the article. Just because it makes claims about imaginary objects doesn't make it true. My point was that high altitude balloons work in carrying internet service.Did you read the article? Here is a excerpt from it.
"If World View can push its technology beyond testing, Stratollites might be stationed high over cities or regions to deliver fine resolution imagery on demand. That can’t be done from space today, because low Earth orbit satellites whiz over their imaging targets at intervals and geostationary satellites must fly at 35,000 kilometers above the equator. World View says Stratollites would cost an estimated 1 percent of a conventional satellite’s price to operate,"
They clearly think satellites are real and see them as competition.
You show me an actual picture of a satellite in "space" then I'll believe it. International Scuba Station certainly won't show us any pictures.
