This was a 600g cell with a 900g payload of two video cameras. Maximum recorded height was 95997 feet. (APRS max 95559ft) Here is a still from one of the cameras pointed up during the burst of the cell. Very interesting visualization of the flight. Note the spike at high altitude. Here is a close up of that spike and its ground track. Go home balloon, you're drunk ! We got video of the moon and lots of images at different heights of a solar "glory". We got full video from both cameras from launch to landing. Recovery was a lot of fun. There was a lone tree out in a pasture, so of course that's where it decided to land. |
