PongSats There and Back

All three flights went very well. We made it to 85,000 feet, 101,000 feet and 103,000 feet. All vehicles and PongSats recovered and are safe and sound. Highlights include Away 49 photographing Away 48 at 100,000 feet (about 14 times). It’s just a small balloon in the frame, but very cool.

More details as more sleep is obtained.

    JP,

    Nice work! That is a nice roll picture also. The distance from the clouds to their shadows really gives you perspective on how high 100,000 feet is (if the dark sky isn’t enough of a clue).
