“The platform is capable of carrying up to 100 kilograms of payload to an altitude of up to 20 kilometers,” the foundation stated in a press release.

The Foundation specified that these features allow the device to “maneuver and remain in a designated area or move along the appropriate trajectory for the payload.”
