Near Space Weather Balloon Launch With Gopro To 109 000 Feet!
The 24th of July we launched a weather balloon, hoping it would reach an altitude of at least 27 000meters. And it reached 33 000meters/109 000 feet!
Link to the full 4 hour video:
balloon bought from here: (600g pawan)
parachute:
Inside the box was:
-Gps Tracker bought from ebay : (know it looks cheap and shitty, but it worked like a charm!)
-Cell phone with an app that logged data. This was an old android cellphone. I also installed an app called gps logger, and thats how i got all the altitude information. The information about the trip itself (latitude, longitude) was stored in the cellphone and taken for closer look when we found the balloon.
-Gopro hero 3 white edition. (Too bad if you don’t like the fisheye leens)
-Extra batterypack for gopro. This was also completely necessary, because without it the gopro wouldn’t have any power left all the way through the trip.
-Hand warmers. This was VERY important. without this, all the electronics would most likely fail, so a couple of handwarmers from your local sports store is a must. (they were even warm when we found the box, after experiencing temperatures as low as -60 C!)
We launched the balloon and the box from Verdal, and it landed in Viggja, Norway.
The box itself was also 100% waterproof. we used silicone to fill up all the gaps that could be exposed to water. and the electronics inside was also in waterproof bags. since we had to drill a hole through the waterprood casing to the gopro to keep it constant charging with a cable, we had to fill this gap ut with silicone aswell.
