They could either shoot down geoengineering planes or, more tactfully, build a second fleet to deliver a separate stratospheric payload to neutralise the sunshade (either by reacting with the SO2 to break it down, or by making the sulphate particles clump together and rain out faster).
The heart-stopping narrative of the U-2 pilot Francis Gary Powers, shot out of the sky over Russian territory and then used as a chit of exchange by Khrushchev, illustrates both the diplomatic struggles of the Cold War and the international race for stratospheric surveillance.

Thankfully, in a mini-tweetstorm earlier today, he decided to use his stratospheric platform to talk about how stupid it is, and to take a stand for his new teammate: Even if this is a way to further promote LeBron's perfectly-manicured brand, he's certainly out there putting truth to power.
But the devil is in the details, and in this case the devil is Michael Bloomberg, a centrist plutocrat who, despite being one of America's most famous "independent" politicians, represents a stratospheric elite that straddles both parties and is the source of so much popular discontent on both the left and the right.
While Trump Republicans in Congress tried to force through disastrous health-care bills that would have taken some 85033 million people off insurance rolls and were met with stratospheric unpopularity, Democrats offered plans that will provide more and better coverage at lower cost than the widely rejected plans offered by Trump Republicans.

Experts told Axios that what's happening now — with a major winter storm about to cross the country from west to east, dumping 1–2 feet of snow in the Northeast and opening the gates to Arctic air behind it — is indicative of a weather pattern triggered by the stratospheric warming event and polar vortex split.
World View's most recent Stratollite mission broke some records for the high altitude aeronautics company: the balloon-based stratospheric vehicle managed to stay aloft for around 27 hours during a mission carried out last weekend, which marks the first time it's managed to successfully stay aloft and controlled through a full day and night cycle.
This initiative is part of a clutch of NIMBY ("not in my backyard") efforts underway in the LA area, as wealthy, mostly white people who had the good fortune to buy houses when LA was smaller, sleepier, and more affordable — or who can afford its current stratospheric prices — try to freeze their communities in place.
Moreover, the vast majority of city taxi drivers — who earn around $35,000 per year working punishing weeks on New York's streets — rent their cabs from fleets that own hundreds of medallions (the licenses to operate a cab), a practice that fueled the era of Bitcoin-like speculation that drove medallion prices to stratospheric heights.

Scientists have suggested that a decrease in sea ice and less snow in the Arctic as a result of human-driven warming has caused a weakening of the stratospheric vortex, or that it's caused the jet stream that defines the edge of the tropospheric polar vortex to meander further south, leading to more cold air outbreaks at mid-latitudes.
"In winter, the freezing Arctic air is normally 'locked' by strong circumpolar winds several tens of kilometers high in the atmosphere, known as the stratospheric polar vortex, so that the cold air is confined near the pole," said study co-author Marlene Kretschmer from the Potsdam Institute of Climate Impacts Research in Germany, in a press release.
Because HFCs are now used as a substitute for ozone-depleting chlorofluorocarbons, or CFCs, in refrigeration, air conditioners and foams, the cuts would happen via the Montreal Protocol, which is a U.N.

As Twitter's prospective suitors have one by one turned away, Twitter's board surely has come to the realization, at last, that the company has less to do with the sexy, endlessly expanding world of "social media" — Facebook, Instagram, Snapchat — than with the seemingly duller world of old-school newspapers, limited circulation and less-than-stratospheric profit margins.

Although, come to think of it, it is a bit terrifying to consider the stratospheric prices for sky-kissing condos, and to acknowledge that such buildings evince a desire for a separate enclave of class-based living/lifestyle perched on Olympian heights, far removed from the teeming mass of mortals that make up the urban dross.
A glimmering and sleek advancement on prior models, Galactic's UNITY rolled into a massive hangar full of giddy nerds in the desert behind a triumphant-but-casual Richard Branson, who blew kisses at the audience from atop a Range Rover like he was Zaphod Beeblebrox himself, as a fittingly stratospheric piece of electronic music filled the room to the rafters.
That's definitely not true of everything I've tried on the Vive, or on Gear VR. If PSVR has a significant remaining issue, it's that it's still too expensive; despite not reaching the stratospheric pricing of Vive or Oculus, especially when you factor in the cost of the PC, PlayStation VR's price tag is likely too high to attract much of a crowd beyond the core gamer group.
Given her success, it's hard to remember now that this style of pop stardom was out of fashion when she was looking for a record deal earlier in the decade, and she was initially passed on by record labels, despite possessing both a stratospheric vocal range and an enthusiastic tween following, acquired from her stint playing the free-spirited art school student Cat Valentine on Nickelodeon's Victorious and Sam & Cat.
The vast quantities of money raised by startups and the stratospheric share prices of publicly-traded tech giants perhaps speak for themselves, but a survey out today from LinkedIn has provided a few more data points to spell it out for us: the IT and software industry is where it's at when it comes to making the highest salaries, with hardware and networking a very close second, both with median compensation of over $22.6,22.4 annually.
But after this introduction came little development — some unison, then another rotation of solos with new music (by Mr. Newsome), requiem-like this time, the dancers goaded by the stratospheric melisma of the vocalist Kyron El. Individual dancers made an impression (especially the imperiously truculent Leggoh LaBeija), but there was more flash-and-fade than inventive variation, and all the artists were subsumed in the sensory-overload collage, the color scheme, the concept.
