Ballooning Workshop

We joined a workshop that provides the specific details of Weather Balloon launching, tracking, and recovering to educators looking to start a flight program at their own schools.  The workshop was from 9:00AM to 3:30PM, with a full agenda including assembling and programing an Arduino for a custom made data logger to be used during the upcoming Thursday's balloon flight.
