In a few minutes we will be off to the desert. Tomorrow morning we will be flying five high altitude balloon missions.
On board will be over 2,000 PongSat student experiments, three MiniCubes, seven cameras, and piles of radio and satellite uplink systems. It looks like we’re facing a 70 to 90 mile recovery across the mud in the high Sierras.
Wish us luck!

The McLane Viking “Rocket Scientists with an attitude” wish you Godspeed as you take our payload and the many others to the heavens. Looking forward to seeing some pictures on the blog on Monday!
3..2…1…Go Vikings!
Clear skies and God speed!
