Tue, 04 Jan 2011 22:58:41 +0000 http://space.1337arts.com/?page_id=67#comment-17777 I am a member of a space engineering class. We have built a successful space craft using a weather balloon, a camera, and an arduino board. We are currently only reaching low altitudes and have been tethering our launches, but our goal is to expand to an untethered launch. Although we are planning to use an autonomous vehicle to retrieve our hardware, we also are interested in using telemetry to retrieve our data (photos, video, temperature,pressure) while our balloon is in space. What kind of telemetry can we use to collect data from our weather balloon spacecraft and receive it on earth? I am a member of a space engineering class.

Every gas supply company that I've checked is charging ~$200+ for a cylinder??? How can you justify helium costing you ~$20?

Trying to maintain cell contact as much as possible so as to be able to retrieve as much real-time GPS data as possible... I believe the antennae is for the cell signal, not GPS.
