Three balloon flights to the stratosphere were made during the program: * Manhigh I to 29,500 m (96,784 feet), by Captain Joseph W. Kittinger on June 2, 1957 * Manhigh II to 30,900 m (101,516 feet), by Major David G. Simons on August 19–20, 1957 for a 32-hour flight〔Kane, item 1541, p. 47〕 * Manhigh III to 29,900 m (98,097 feet), by Lieutenant Clifton M.
