INTERNET FROM BALLOONS!!!

The tech giant Google is planning to provide internet access to millions of people in the remote parts of the world through
the PROJECT LOON in which thousands of balloons would be released in the near future  allowing more than 4 billion people with no access to get online.
The most advantage of this project is to communicate with others during natural disasters when the existing communication systems and infrastructure fails. It works by connecting the ground stations to the local internet infrastructure and beaming signals to the balloons, which are self powered by solar panels.These balloons are generally in the stratosphere barely visible to the naked eye and are able to communicate by forming a network in the sky.

Users below will be having an antennae by the side of their house or on the top of the roof of their house through which they can send  and receive data signals.
