Correct. Those are aeronautical physics experiments.

They are unmanned to set records in duration and elevation.

No they are unmanned because they would have to be many times bigger to
carry the weight of a person.

No they are unmanned because they didn't want to make
them large enough to carry a man.

Having comprehension problems?

No I am not. You are!

gibberish snipped

... there was never any plan
for them to be other than unmanned, so they were designed to be just big
enough to be able to fly with what's in them.

Wrong, wrong, wrong, wrong, wrong

If you study the development of the design and it's mission
statement, you will see that these things are designed to
carry nearly an 800lb payload. Further study will explain
what that payload consists of, and what it will be used for.

No acorn for you.

Actually, the thing was designed to keep researchers employed.

They have otherwise no useful purpose any time in the foreseeable future.

They are too fragile to survive in the real world and too slow to be useful
for surveillance as they can't keep up with winds aloft.
