H.AL.E. 2008 Press Release


The above photo was taken at approx. 100,000 feet by a Mindstorms-powered camera. (Brian: I assume that this shot is from your own payload camera--is that right)?

HALE press release is here.

Is the stringy-stuff in the photo related to HALE or is it just some damage to the photo?

It's parts of the balloon, I found it in the article. If it wasn't for the parts of the balloon that picture would be perfect, but I guess the balloon is what got the picture in the first place, lol.

I don't now. I think they provide some good perspective.
