We are a science based high school in Phoenix,Arizona. Our school is inner-city and many of our students will be first generation college students. My students are smart and hardworking. Most of the students in this project are enrolled in my astronomy class, but others will be involved as well. The students are very excited about the challenge of launching weather balloons into 'near-space'. Most of these students are aspiring to be engineers or scientists and this is an amazing hands-on opportunity for them to be involved with.
Our students are also very community oriented and are looking for ways to use our balloon technology to assist in our neighborhoods. One of their goals is to photograph the neighborhood from above and study urban blight.
