PBH-10 Trans-Atlantic Balloon Flight Attempt

Post by akula65 »

Those wacky balloonists are at it again. Some of you may recall the unmanned Spirit of Knoxville Trans-Atlantic balloon flight attempts about this time last year. Well, the SNOX team is no more, but there is a group of engineering students at Cornell that is planning a Trans-Atlantic attempt some time this weekend (provided the weather cooperates). You can get more info at the following sites:

If you have an HF (shortwave) receiver capable of receiving Morse code, you can even participate as a tracking station.

Go balloon!
