Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University (ERAU) Project HiBall is pleased to announce the flight of ERAU-29. This high altitude balloon flight will take place on Saturday, July 29, 2017 at 9:00 A.M. MST (1600 UTC). The launch site is currently TBD but will be chosen to provide a flyover of the student ground station at the ERAU campus.
The lift vehicle will be a 2000 gram weather balloon, filled with hydrogen. The expected burst altitude will about 90,000 feet. The flight is anticipated to last about 2 hours from launch to touchdown.
The balloon will carry student-built BalloonSat payloads destined to fly during the Solar Eclipse of August 2017. This will be a test flight to exercise the automatic tracking system and determine practical range distance for the improved video, still camera and tracking payloads
APRS Beacons will accompany the flight transmitting position information as follows:

This is a floater attempting to circumnavigate the Earth.
In conjunction with the 2017 National BSA Jamboree at the
Summit Bechtel Reserve, Scout reservation in West Virginia.
Launch will be done by Bill Brown (WB8ELK), Keith Kaiser (WA0TJT) and other members of the K2BSA Radio Scouting team.
Watch for updates here on how to follow this flight using DL-fldigi on its trip around the world.
The Skytracker weighs just 12 grams (less than half an ounce). It is totally solar-powered and uses special lightweight flexible solar cells. It transmits the GPS position, altitude, solar panel voltage and temperature every 2 minutes on a ham radio frequency that many amateur radio operators listen to across the World. When a ground station receives the transmission, their software automatically sends the report to an online map (aprs.fi and tracker.habhub.org). The callsign for one balloon is K2BSA-11 and the other one is K2BSA-12. The balloon is a 36-inch silver Mylar foil party balloon that costs around $3.00 and we are using helium for the lifting gas. The balloon is only filled about one-thirds full to allow the balloon to float without bursting once it achieves an altitude of around 28,000 feet. Once it achieves that altitude, it will float along at that altitude for days and weeks and can possibly fly across the Altantic Ocean and even around the World.
The frequencies that it uses are the national APRS tracking frequency of 144.390 MHz FM and transmits every two minutes followed 10 seconds later with a repeat transmission on 144.340 MHz FM. It will transmit as long as it is daylight.

Arizona Near Space Research (ANSR) is pleased to announce the flights of ANSR-103-104. This high altitude balloon flights will take place on Saturday,November 19th, 2016 at 9:00 A.M and 9:30 A. M.. The baseline launch site will be the University of Arizona Maricopa Agricultural Center 37860 W Smith Enke Rd, Maricopa, AZ 85138 (33.073274, -111.982793). The final launch site choice will depend on the predicted winds aloft.
The balloons will be 3000-gram latex weather balloon, filled with hydrogen. The expected burst altitude will be 90,000 feet or more. The flight is anticipated to last about 2.5 hours from launch to touchdown. These flights are part of the ASCEND! program and as such flights include lunch the lunch menu is attached
APRS Beacons will transmit position information for the balloon on 144.34 MHz and 445.925 MHz. and a CW beacon on 147.515 MHz and Mode C Transponders will also be flown. Call signs and -SSIDs will be published closer to the flight day.Our mobile cross band Digipeater will repeat locally the beacons' APRS data to the 144.390 MHz standard APRS frequency and subsequently will be I-GATED to the Internet for out-of-area trackers. You can track the flight using the link: http://aprs.fi.

Landing was near Utica NE in a cornfield. Had to work for this one a little - very hard to spot in the fully mature corn. Could not pinpoint direction on beeper until about 50 ft away and could not see until 10 ft away. Used Aprsdroid to zero in to right general area.
Horizon-pointing GoPro and still cameras ran launch to landing. Upward-pointing Kodak Zi6 quit after 10 minutes (3rd time in last 4 flights). Time for it to retire.

THE BALLOON WENT MISSING ON APRIL 27 AFTER TRAVELING FOR 18 DAYS AND 51000 KM. IT WAS ONLY 1800KM FROM DOING A TOTAL CIRCUMNAVIGATION OF THE EARTH... THE ONLY POWER USED FOR THE FLIGHT WAS SUNSHINE AND A FEW CUBIC FEET OF HYDROGEN THAT COULD HAVE BEEN PRODUCED WITH ALUMINUM FOIL BALLS AND DRAIN CLEANER... IT WAS FUN TO TRACK AS IT AS TOOK THE MOST RIDICULOUS ROUTE AROUND THE WORLD.

Hi all,
We are looking at a Marathon to the Sky high altitude balloon launch on Thursday, July 2nd at 2:00pm (1400EST) from the Olean Middle School Track.
We are shooting for an altitude of 40,000 meters, or around 130,000 feet, the length of a marathon. At these altitudes, known as near-space, one can see the black curvature of space, and the payload will be above 99% of the Earth\'s atmosphere!
Thursday\'s launch will be a 65 gram payload and a Hwoyee 1600 balloon. The payload includes a new addition, a high definition camera, along with a ham radio (Compressed APRS on 144.390mhz, callsign KD2FZW-11) beacon that transmits our GPS location, temperature and battery voltage so that we can retrieve the payload.
To live track our flight on Thursday, you can use this link:
http://aprs.fi/#!mt=roadmap&z=11&call=a%2FKD2FZW-11&timerange=43200&tail=43200
Since the balloon will be filled with hydrogen, smoking and other spark-sources are strictly prohibited for safety.
Thank you,
Saad Mirza

Arizona Near Space Research (ANSR)* is pleased to announce the flight
> of *ANSR-90/Univ of Texas*. This high altitude balloon flight will take
> place on Saturday, April 11, 2015 at 9:00 A.M. The baseline launch site
> will be the University of Arizona Maricopa Agricultural Center, near
> Maricopa, AZ (33 deg 04.42 min, 111 deg 58.97 min). The final launch
> site choice will depend on the predicted winds aloft. Watch for
> additional announcements prior to launch day.
> Due to military training exercises this weekend, we are unable to launch
> from New Hope on I-10. The Thursday PM prediction for the launch of the
> ANSR-90 / UT balloon flight*is* *from the Dateland, Arizona Elementary
> School, I-8 Exit 67*
>
> The balloon will be a 2000-gram weather balloon, filled with hydrogen.
> The expected burst altitude will be 95,000 feet or more. The flight is
> anticipated to last about 2.5 hours from launch to touchdown.
>
> This flight will system test for the University of Texas. Their payload
> will be an electrical engineering model of their \"SnapSat\" CubeSat
> design under development. The payload uses the Qualcomm Snapdragon
> processor and will downlink live video and telemetry on the 2.4 GHz band
> using the amateur radio Broadband Ham Net mesh.
>
> This Flight is also ANSR\'s entry into the Global Balloon Challenge, a
> world wide activity to fly as many ARHAB balloons possible over the
> April 11-12 weekend. Since we will be going for the height record
> flight that day we will keep the payload weight as low as possible. We
> will also keep our overfill factor low to maximize height provided
> predicted Jet Stream winds allow for the slower ascent rate.
>
> Since we will be looking to save weight on the flight we will be using
> the Sacaton Repeater as our primary communications
> on the Smith Peak Repeater, *146.680* (-, 162.2) ***Note this repeater
> may not be reachable from the Launch site)

> Our mobile cross band Digipeater will repeat locally the beacons\' APRS
> data to the 144.390 MHz standard APRS frequency and subsequently will be

This is an ultra lightweight payload with a OT+SMT, SRB MX146LV, and a GT-320FW High-Altitude GPS Receiver on a custom made board to integrate the components. The enclosure is a semi-hard shell case designed for GPS receivers. We may also include a very small video camera. We also plan to fly an Argent Data SSTVCAM transmitting Slow Scan images on 443.75MHz. We expect the total weight of the package including parachute and strings to the balloon at about 2 pounds.

The second Flight of N4EE-11 was a great success. While we launched 45 minutes late due to electronics booting problems, every other flight element was next to perfect. Flight Prediction was right on and we recovered within 16 minutes. Our payload dropped onto a Fire Break adjacent to the Hickory Bluff Farms (fabulous Pears, Peaches and Blueberries). The folks there were most gracious and understanding of our 108 dB Audio Alarm blaring the payloads safe return. We walk straight to it. Here are the Flight Details: ,

Mission - Beat Felix, Probe - Hadfield, Hadfield is the third probe launched by the Beat Felix team and their second attempt to beat the altitude achieved by Felix Baumgartner and the Red Bull Stratos Team.
After flight report:
Despite great weather we had some trouble with our vertical weighing scale (it turned out to be a little inaccurate) and so the balloon was underfilled. Hadfield achieved an ascent rate of just 2m/s and at 16km it started to lose contact with satellites before finally shutting down (probably due to the cold). We persevered and kept searching for a signal for another 4-5 hours but received nothing and had to call it a day. It was a shame to end on such a disappointment but we've still got our record of 38915m which was just 130m short of Felix Baumgartner's record. We're all going to get a good rest over the summer before we start the next mission in September.

5 balloon launched
4 from UAH BalloonSat Design Class
1 from Alabama A&M
We managed to group 4 of them to land within a mile or two of each other. Unfortunately that grouping was heavily wooded and steep terrain. I overcompensated for Balloon 5 and it landed 30 miles east. Four of the five balloons landed way up in treetops...70 to 90 feet up. We recovered 3 of them on Saturday. Shane N4XWC (our amazing tree-climber) went back out on Sunday and recovered balloons 4 and 5. Balloon 4 was in a remote valley in a wilderness area between two ridges...Balloon 5 carried my Iridium modem payload (WB8ELK-15) and was 70 feet up near a large chicken farm (Balloon 3 was also near a large chicken farm). Shane had to climb up to recover that one.I was watching the Iridium telemetry here in Huntsville and noticed the altitude field changed 70 feet lower and then quit. I figured out they had recovered it then.

I'm flying a SPOT and one of Bill Brown's new Iridium Modems, which sends an eMail of the latitude, longitude, and altitude to gmail.
Deb and I and fellow Near Space Ventures member John had a great time on this very successful launch, chase and recovery. Celebrated the recovery and El Camino Real restraunt about 12:30 after a very fun chase.

On board were two GoPro HD3s taking 1080p30 videos along with images every 10 seconds. We used an Arduino with a Trackuino shield to relay altitude, location, internal and external temperatures. The highest reported altitude was 91,258 ft, though it may have gotten slightly higher before bursting. The flight took about 90 minutes (60 minutes up, 30 minutes down).

This is our second flight. We did not recover our first flight, and we have upgraded our equipment and changed our launch site to near Chifeng of Inner Mongolia Plains. Three balloons will be launched, including two from student groups, and a commercial one as a marketing stunt for our sponser. The payload includes an Android phone, a Spot GPS tracker, GoPro Cameras. The balloons are predicted to land in Inner Mongolia Plains, where they can be easier recovered. We will update our progress on the website here: http://qhfz-nearspace.diandian.com (Chinese)

After six previously successful flights, unfortunately we ran out of luck with JHAB-7. Last reported location was somewhere inside Joshua Tree http://aprs.fi/info/a/KJ6UXA-7 - We hiked to the last reported location (tough hike), but was unable to locate it. We're hopeful someone will find it, but doubtful based upon the rough terrain. Anyway you can send word out to the community to keep an ear out for it ?

Missions specifics:
Date: April 13th Time: Setup – 7am, Launch – approximately 9am Central Time Location: Ridgeland, MS Gas: Helium Purpose: Carry experiments to altitudes greater than 90k feet
Equipment: GoPro Camera, 2 meter voice beacons, APRS telemetry (KC5NXD-12), HF Telemetry(trackable at http://spacenear.us/tracker/), possible SPOT tracker, and an audio alarm for location in dense woods. Telemetry specifics: APRS tracking as standard, HF tracking will be using a HF transmitter designed and built by WB8ELK and transmitting on or approximately 14.103 Mhz. The telemetry will be in short bursts and can be decoded using the FLDigi High Altitude Balloon version of the software. Download the latest version of this at http://ukhas.org.uk/projects:dl-fldigi All telemetry reports would be greatly appreciated. Send all telemetry reports to [email protected]. Any reception QSL cards will also be greatly appreciated and mailed to the address for KC5NXD in QRZ.com. Special attention is needed to listen to the descent flight telemetry especially when in the last 30K feet. If configured right, FLDigi HAB will relay the information to the spacenear.us/tracker site.

All our data is still on aprs.fi please have a look.
almost 3 hrs flight, landing 10km North of Ystad in Sweden, 128 km away from take off,
it almost looked like it was going to land in water, but wind turned.. wow..
top height was 29km (estimated pr curve interpolation)
GPS was a 24km limit type, we knew that,
so baloon cut off system was programmed to 18km,
since this was our first real flight, we where happy about 18km,
the cut off system failed to cut away the ballon due to current needed was not available,
we think due to cold for so long.
We really wanted to find the payload with HD video,
after two days of recover trips to landing area, we now call the payload lost..
but our video link did send down useable standard def video from the top and most of the accent,
and we also got aprs flight data, and alot of stuff learned, so the mission was a success

NSS Near Space Sciences is pleased to announce it's net UP-COMING flight NSS-52 "Put A Cork In It"
This is again a long duration attempt but using a Totex and Not a Hoywee balloon.
Balloon will be a Totex TA-2000
Lift Gas H2
This has an automatic gas release valve in the neck of the balloon that uses a string inside the balloon to determine when the valve will be opened.
If valve fails, balloon will fly as a regular flight and burst at about 120K feet.
If it works as hoped it should open the valve and level off at about 75K feet.
launch will be 00:00Z 02/05/2013 ( 6 PM CST Monday Evening)
Payload will run 300 milliwatts standard aprs on 144.39 MHz. call will be KB9KHO-1
With a 1 minute toggle schedule. every minute will have location, and every other minute will have telemetry added to the location string.
Telemetry will be status of the valve as well as temps in and out, volts of batterys as well as the solar panel. This payload can in theroy run forever as long as it gets sunshine.
A tracking page / chat room is made and ready at.
http://www.qsl.net/nss/KB9KHO-1.html
We will be there during balloon fill and of course to monitor during the flight.
Launch all depends on ground winds again since launching from my yard. So calm enough winds are needed. watch here on GPSL for the GO / NOGO call as the launch time gets closer.
Joe WB9SBD
Greetings all, NSS-52 "Put A Cork In It" has been postponed temporarily. Not so much because of the weather. It actually seems like it's going t be perfect.
But rather the payload is getting a software up-grade.
Will post when it will try to fly again.

This is our first flight by Tsinghua High School, made exclusively by a group of Grade 8 students, and to our knowledge is the first one done by high school students in China. We will be using H2 and the balloon is predicted to float over Tangshang City in Hebei Province. The Payload will include a small video cam and android phone. We will showcase our design and photos later on.
Our first balloon went up on Feb. 2 and we never got the return signal. Either both our GPS indicators went out of power (from the cold?) or the balloon landed somewhere without GSM signal, either into the ocean or in some mountain. We last caught the signal when it was still in our sight, floating no more than 1km away.
This student team and other teams will be trying find out what happened and repeat the experiment a few weeks later.
We have a web page here(http://qhfz-nearspace.diandian.com) reporting all student teams, it is in Chinese.

We are looking for help tracking two of our long duration research balloons. We are testing some new thermal systems on the balloons. UMICH-1 had only passive insulation and it looks like the Li battery voltage droops down too low (below -30C, at it\'s float altitude of 61,000ft).
UMICH-2 has passive insulation, and had small active heating system as well, but it\'s batteries may get too cold tonight as well. They should start back up at sunrise though and begin to continue transmitting on 144.390MHz.
We are seeking help receiving the beacons in northern Maine, Nova Scotia, and the Azores.

Set the dial of your SSB receiver (USB!) to 21.070 MHz (day) or 7.035 MHz (night) and check the PSK31 waterfall at approximately 800 Hz.
The exact frequency may be temperature dependent and could shift by up to 200 Hz
We\'re transmitting in 10 minute cycles. The PSK transmitter will send 3 position packets in a row with ~10 second spaces in each 10 minute cycle. So if you\'re a little off the frequency, you have a chance to tune properly and pick up the second and third transmission. Please please listen on PSK with DL-FLDIGI!!!! This program automatically submits the coordinates to http://spacenear.us/tracker/
You can install DL-FLDIGI from http://ukhas.org.uk/projects:dl-fldigi
You need to launch the program in HAB mode!

it to France at the rate the weather is going so we probably aren't going

Nebraska / Arkansas State Half-Time High Altitude Balloon Launch. Memorial Stadium. Through a collaborative effort between the Strategic Air & Space Museum, NASA Nebraska Space Grant, and the University of Nebraska-Lincoln, we are proud to present what *may* be the largest-attended scientific high altitude balloon launch in history. 80,000+ football fans will watch as two 1200g (H2) balloons are released from either side of the HuskerVision jumbotron, and one 300g (He) balloon launched by Astronaut Clayton Anderson from the stadium's 50 yard line. Participants from Omaha and Lincoln public schools, Nebraska 4-H, UNO, and UNL, will be on the football field along with Clayton Anderson. ESPN has shown interest in developing a story surrounding the launch so we *may* have a nationwide television audience during the half-time event. The larger two balloons will be carrying the participant's scientific experiments, and chased by teams ready on the outskirts of Lincoln. Video will be available at www.youtube.com/unl a few days after the launch. We will also have pictures and video available at www.SASMuseum.com .

FLIGHT ANNOUNCEMENT
North Texas Balloon Project (NTBP) is a group of amateur (HAM) radio operators from Fort Worth and Dallas and has launched balloons from Cleburne, Clifton, and Hillsboro Airports since before 1991. This is the annual launch and is funded by the amateur radio operators associated with the NTBP.
Please send an email to [email protected] for further information or to make reports during or after the actual launch. Launch date is September 29, 2012. The back up date will be October 6, 2012.
Mission Number 20, “For the VETS of WWII”, will be held by the North Texas Balloon Project and is planned for launch about 7:30 am on September 29, 2012 from the municipal airport in Hillsboro, Texas, just south of Fort Worth and Dallas. Back up date is October 6, 2012. Several payload packages containing sensors and amateur radios will be carried to nearly 100,000 feet in about 90 minutes by a hydrogen filled balloon and return via parachute in about 50 minutes. Mobile recovery teams will use position reports from the onboard GPS and APRS transmitter on 144.390 MHz and radio direction finding techniques to recover the payloads.
Pre-launch activities will begin about 6:30 am with the HF Launch Net on 7260 +/- 5 kHz, LSB beginning around 8:00 am. A cross band repeater will be activated soon after launch. Uplink is 445.800 MHz and downlink is 147.560 MHz. Handheld VHF radios and scanners can receive the downlink. At the peak altitude ham radio operators f

This is a long duration attempt flight. It will use flight systems only used one time before, (by us)to control altitude.
This will be a flight similar to one we did over 20 years ago that seemed to have worked, but it was in the days before GPS\'s existed so all locations were strictly by beam headings.
This is a RTTY and CW transmitter 300 milliwatts, on 10.145 MHz USB on the dial. the tones will be aprox at 1600 and 1800 in the waterfall, and CW at the 1800 point.
Complete details of the transmitter, what will be sent, and the whole flight train system can be found on the web site here

This is an ultra lightweight payload with a OT+SMT, SRB MX146LV, and a GT-320FW High-Altitude GPS Receiver on a custom made board to integrate the components. The enclosure is a semi-hard shell case designed for GPS receivers. We may also include a very small video camera. We expect the total weight of the package including parachute and strings to the balloon at about 1 pound. We hope for a fairly fast ascent but are mostly trying to get an altitude record, at least for us, of over 102 thousand
