BalloonSat Launch

I have a near space launch scheduled for September 26th. This will take place in Salina, KS with the help of Pete Sias, the guy who got me started in near space. The launch will carry five BalloonSats my CT442 class is assemblying. I also hope to carry the lunch sack tracking module I'm developing for my Pop Mechanics article.

Multiple Lines in BalloonSats

I prefer having at least three lines running through a BalloonSat. A single line connecting the BalloonSat to the rest of the near spacecraft leaves it swinging and twisting around too much. The extra cords dampen out the motion leaving images with less blurring from motion.
