High ALtitude Object
My little sister didn’t believe that the earth was round, so I decided to launch a helium balloon to an altitude of 30km and shoot pictures and videos. I have posted a write-up with selected pictures and videos here. A launch and retrieval video is also available.
Just a change from DS projects 😀

High ALtitude Object…
So I was searching around the net as I do and I came across this blog post. Apparently this guy, just to prove that the Earth was round to his little sister, built a a remotely controlled camera……

How comes you never did the 3rd Launch? Is it still planned? Considering this was your last blog post, most should assume you died…

He is not dead. He’s still more or less active in the DSserial Forum.
