Flame roars from a balloon's burner in this image, the blue sky behind it giving the fire a sharp, almost theatrical contrast. Hot air ballooning was revived in the United States in the 1960s and 1970s, when new lightweight fabrics and propane burners made flights practical for hobbyists again after decades of near obscurity. The burner is the heart of the craft: a propane-fed jet heats the air inside the envelope, and each blast of flame is what lifts and steers the basket. Pictures like this one capture the moment that makes flight possible.
