MIT'16 EA Tube goes to Near Space!
Origin Entry:
MIT'16 EA Tube goes to Near Space!
Description
MIT class of 2016 early action admits – "Hack the Tubes" project. I decided to send my Tube to the edge of space! I turned it into an Amateur Radio High-Altitude Ballooning project. I used two GPS-equipped ham radio transmitters (APRS) using the callsigns AK4JG-11 (me) and K4ETY-11 (my dad) to send out position packets from the Tube so I could track it on the ground.
