ABSTRACT:
A tethered aerostat mooring apparatus for launching, maintaining aloft, and docking an aerostat that is readily foldable for ease of transport, and mounted such that the entire structure rotates on one axis to permit weather vaning of a deployed aerostat, and includes a flying sheave that rotates on an axis perpendicular to the first axis such that movement of the aerostat in azimuth maintains alignment with the fairlead of the sheave, thus providing ease of operation regardless of the dynamic movement of the aerostat.
