BalloonSats One key to better math, science, and technology knowledge L. Paul Verhage GPSL 2008

Why BalloonSats? ● Near Space Motivates ● Simple to Build ● No Tracking Equipment or Radio License ● Focus on Construction and Data Analysis

The Typical BalloonSat

BalloonSat Construction Workshop Teams of three or four Two days/Four hours Classroom Teams of three or four Two weeks/1 class period

Advanced Students

Student Data Without APRS With APRS

Potential Problems Weather Hot and Sharp Tools Wrong Audience Work Schedules Liability

BalloonSat Principia Thorough Documentation Data Analysis Ping Pong Stratolites Example Experiments

Umm, maybe I could….
