    Participants at the 21st annual White Sands Balloon Invitational assemble a balloon basket at White Sands National Monument, N.M., Sept. 16. Balloonists came from Colorado, Arizona, Kansas, California, Texas and New Mexico. The two-day event took off from both the Balloon Park in Alamogordo, N.M., and the White Sands National Monument, and featured more than 50 balloons, a significant increase from the usual 35 that attend. The event committee obtained a permit for balloons to fly over the monument, as normally private aircraft are not allowed in the airspace. Members of Team Holloman volunteered to crew balloons at the event.
