Balloon Flight to Near Space Over the Darling Downs

[PA.]

Outer Space, is really not very far. Top marks for the young space explorer in this video.

 

This is a video about my first High Altitude Balloon flight. Launched on the 21-8-14 at Cecil Plains Queensland, it had a flight time of 125 minutes and reached 33,585m (111,000ft.)

That is pretty cool. Well I got a bit dizzy watching but good work:thumb up:

 

It is amazing that a youngster can put something like this together, full marks.

 

Go back 30 or 40 years and think of what the technology would have looked like then
