There's a beautiful shot of the Beiseker Airport taken moments after its launch, and an incredible shot taken at 105,000 ft. showing the curved Earth and the blackness of outer space. At over 108,000 ft. the balloon exploded and the payload dropped by parachute into a pea field south of here. And it snapped photos all the way down, too!
The balloon and payload were recovered and the group is getting ready for a future launch!
Congratulations Project Phoenix on a project well done! I hope to see you folks again at our unique little airport.
