A 13ft (4 metre) balloon controlled by an onboard AI has escaped from the 
Magna Science centre in south Yorkshire. Capable of independent flight for 
up to a week, and of inflating to four times its original size, the Flyborg 
poses a potential hazard to aircraft in the area.

Staff at Magna are offering a 15 grand reward for its return.
