Cirrus Clouds
High-level clouds form above 20,000 feet (6,000 meters) and since the temperatures are so cold at such high elevations, these clouds are primarily composed of ice crystals. High-level clouds are typically thin and white in appearance, but can appear in a magnificent array of colours when the Sun is low on the horizon.

It can fly up to about 30,000 feet on a reasonable day! Watch people stare with amazement as you guide your giant burnt sausage through the sky!

One of my mates at university bought this item as a random toy to play with, as the sun was out for the first time in ages. We took it out in a field out the front of the university halls, inflated it, and sealed the ends. It floated up quickly, before returning to ground and rising again. This time, instead of stopping when it reached the end of its teather, the string snapped, and the huge black sausage rose gracefully, moving ever further away from us. We followed it on the ground and it drew much attention from passing motorists. Final we gave up when we could no longer see it, despite its size. This is proof of how great these things are, and how high they can really fly!!
Q. Could you tie 2 together to make a 16m balloon?
A. Yes you could, we are even planning a balloon 5Km in length for launch in Nevada N. America!

Looks like a paraglider to me. Look under the shape and see if you see a faint image of a terran enjoying the day!
