PRIVATE FIELD NOTES, Dr. A. F. Kingi, date unknown.

Cleanup continues, but even six weeks after February's lab explosion, we're still finding more and more gel that has escaped into the atmosphere. Between seven hundred and eight hundred cubic meters of materials was ejected in the blast. We believe it was initially distributed over approximately two hundred square kilometers, but given the nature of the material, it may well have traveled further.

Given time, it would seem that most gel tends to settle somewhere around local ground level, regardless of environmental conditions, altitude, or air pressure. However, its very nature makes it susceptible to strong winds and meteorological changes, meaning it may be many weeks before we have a full picture of the scale of distribution.

In addition, it seems that a great deal of blast debris may have been mixed with, perhaps even suspended in, the gel, which has a habit of slowly absorbing items it passes over.

Synopsis

Beach Balls generate in the Smokestacks in the Deep Zone and are the primary souce of Red Balloons. After all the surrounding bulbs are sucked away, the main Ball pops and spits out a random additional item. The central ball may include crafting materials, steel sheets, gears, car parts, or a stable, unstable, or corrupted anchor.
