St. Georges Technical High School STRATOHAWK 2022

The St. Georges Aerospace team launched their high altitude balloon today into the stratosphere to measure temperature, humidity, and altitude! For the first time, they were able to film the process using a DJI Mavic Air 2 drone.

It was cool tracking the balloon on and off yesterday during carpentry class. I was surprised how far east it went into NJ and then suddenly drifted sharp west back to Delaware. Fun experiment! -Glen

Yeah truly amazing stuff thank you!

I had fun tracking it down and finding it yesterday, it sucks that for majority of the in-flight footage was fogged up.

That's the nature of science... find problem - solve problem. The rest of the project was a huge success! Perfect launch, reached above 88000 feet, temperatures lower than -40 degrees, near perfect tracking, excellent landing zone... congratulations to the entire team!
