That comes at the cost of decreased payload and climb\nrate, obviously.\n Pardon me asking this question as it only relates to amateur satellites in\na small way as the packages I refer to don't achieve escape velocity.\n\nOver the years I've followed the work being done regarding flying radio\npackages on balloons.\n\nI'm familiar with the scenario of a balloon carrying a package that will go\nto a predetermined altitude, bursting then returning to the ground.\n\nWith the advent of the round-the-world experiments with small party\nballoons, how do project organizers keep such equipment in the jet stream\nso that they travel long distances without the equipment going so high that\nthe balloon bursts?\n\n\n\n\nDave Marthouse N2AAM\[email protected]\n_______________________________________________\nSent via [email protected].
