I'm not completely certain what qualifies as an amateur payload, since some of the participants are enrolled in an academic class taught by university...
Dear friends, I have learned of a recent high altitude balloon flight (my son had a experiment on the flight) where during ascent, the payload string was...
We've seen several pix from our flights where the parachute appeared BELOW the horizon, and that's one form of Post Burst Chaos that many of us have ...
Hi Howard! Did you look for little green fingerprints on the payload? Perhaps ET was at play here? :) Curious - What was the weight, size and shape of this...
Dear friends, The flight that I am referring to has nothing to do with the University of Southern Indiana flight that made CNN. The payload inversion...
