Each Fall at New England Sci-Tech, students with an interest in electronics and coding get together to try and make something big. 8 months later, they've designed and build their own PCBs.

They've assembled payloads and launched them to 30km using a latex balloon that expands to 35 ft. in diameter. And they've tracked down and recovered the payloads. 1 month later, they have assembled their data into scientific presentations and presented to a crowd of technical adults at an annual radio conference.
