Happy Holidays to everyone..

I thought maybe some of you would enjoy looking at these:

Recently I was blessed with the opportunity to spend some time at KSC and
was given access to both Atlantis and Endeavour.

I spent approximately 3 hours inside Atlantis photographing the payload
bay, flight deck, and mid-deck. While inside Atlantis, I couldn't pass up
the opportunity to take photos of mine and my dad's QSL cards on the flight
deck: http://flic.kr/p/aVsWfM

Afterwards, I was taken to the VAB to photograph Endeavour and then on to
the engine shop where for the first time, all 15 space shuttle main engines
sat in the same room at once.

If you'd like, you can view the entire set at http://flic.kr/s/aHsjxni8cR

This transcontinential and trans-Atlantic Balloon mission was fantastic!

But in reviewing all the hundreds of emails and minute-by-minute tracking
excitement, I just went back to read about the balloon itself, and can find
nothing.

The original post referred to the California Near SpaCe Project as being the
owners.

http://californianearspaceproject.com/

But in reviewing all the emails, I can find no other reference to WHO
launched it and what it is.

Further, going to that site has NO NEWS about this mission, other than a
link to APRS.FI which we are all using to track it.

So what gives?  Are there no pictures of the launch, or who owns it?  Or did
I just miss the memo...

Hi Bob
The tracker was a bigredbee high power 2M unit, I used one on a balloon
flight and it's now in my car as G6UIM-9
http://www.bigredbee.com/blgps_2mhp.htm

Launch announcements here
http://www.arhab.org/ARHABlaunchannouncements.html

Most of the technical chat happened on the GPSL yahoo group
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/GPSL

you don't need to be running APRSIS32 but it makes using ANSRVR easier, if
you are interested in Balloons I suggest joining the BALLOON group on ANSRVR
that will give you automatic notification of Balloon launches the callsign
and the location of the launch, and also notify you of Balloon burst.
If you track a balloon using APRSIS32 you will also get the option of
displaying the Balloon communication range circle, so you can see if you are
in range.
http://aprsisce.wikidot.com/doc:ansrvr


I have suggested that the tracker software is modified to switch frequency
and path based on longitude.
144.390MHz in the states, 145.825MHz path ARISS over ocean, and then
144.800MHz over Europe
If lucky you then stand a chance of getting a report via ISS or PCSAT whilst
out of range of land based stations.

And APRSIS32 also includes the ability to track satellites

They got a good launch on all four balloons from Precision AutoTune in San
Jose (Hwy 85 and Almaden Expwy) late this afternoon. A little wind but not a
showstopper. While coming home about 20 minutes after launching #4, it began
to rain.

Don KD6IRE had the honors of launching one of the balloons, Johnathan AE6HO
launched another, Ron launched the first of the two planned floaters and his
dad Frank got to launch fourth balloon (which he predicted will be best of
all and said it will reach New York).

I asked Ron Meadows why do four at the same time (it got somewhat hectic),
he said it is easier to do all four since he scheduled the garage, organized
people to help, setting up the floating arm, etc.

One of the balloons appeared to not send packets, viewing digipeaters on
144.39 the altitude reported 109,000 feet. It then appeared to be good and
balloon was launched, aprs data looked weird at first but later got a good
track (we were worried for a bit and later relieved).

Two balloons are going for altitude records, the other two are floaters
which will see how far across the country they go. Altitude balloons have a
fast climb rate (and at 100K, horizontal speed was fast). Floaters have a
slower ascent rate as planned. All of us will watching the balloons as sure
many other balloon enthusiasts are as well (anyone pulling an all-nighter?).
Ron should not have too many jobs planned tomorrow as he will be most
interested in flights of these balloons.

Bernhard AE6YN and Ian KO6YQ (and maybe other Stratofox members) are
following the altitude balloons in central California. One of them is using
same payload as the altitude record setting balloon, it has member
signatures all over it (which you can see in the NBC Bay Area television
interview).

I took video of the launches and will post some clips on youtube tomorrow or
the next day. Thanks to all members that helped. We also had a larger group
of people that showed up to see the fill and launches.

Jim,

Thanks for the update.  A good opportunity for a shameless plug for those
who have been sending the ARISSat-1 team telemetry to keep it coming.  You
may well be the one to capture and send the last data!

+ Yuri, UT1FG, will once again be traveling across the Atlantic
  Ocean and will be active from some "Wet grids" as UT1FG/MM be-
  tween November 25, 2011, through the end of May 2012. His first
  trip will be from the Panama Canal to Huelva, Spain. Yuri is
  reportedly a crew member on the ship, so activity will be dur-
  ing his free time. Operations are expected on all amateur radio
  bands, 160-2 meters, 70 cm, and also including the satellite.
  His activities will be mainly through the satellite, but also
  look for him on the HF bands. He will also be active on 6 meters,

On the AO27 pass today someone was saying they were in CN35.  If they were,
it must have been a /MM, so I thought it was him. This announcement looks
like he was going the other direction, though.
